On this episode of IP Watchdog Unleashed we speak with Scott McKeown, who is a shareholder at Wolf Greenfield. Scott leads the firm’s post grant patent practice, and he is the author of PatentsPostGrant.com, which provides inside views and news pertaining to the Nation’s busiest patent court, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).  As many in the industry no doubt know, Scott is recognized as one of the leading authorities on PTAB practice, including inter partes review (IPR) proceedings, post grant review (PGR) proceedings, as well as reexamination and reissue proceedings, which often follow on PTAB proceedings. 

Scott is not only a good friend, but he is also the Chair of our annual PTAB program, which took place this year from January 27 to January 29 at IPWatchdog Studios. This conversation with Scott took place before a live studio audience as a part of our PTAB Masters™ 2025 program.  

He's one of the most prolific representatives in the PTAB arena, dealing with IPR, PGR. He also handles reexaminations and the like. And he's also a very good friend of mine, and he's the chair of our PTAB program every year, which we're doing this, actually is live.

Our conversation was wide ranging but was dominated by discussion of patent reform efforts and whether the PTAB is working as intended.
