Trust Stamp Chief Science Officer Dr. Norman Poh joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has received a notice of allowance for its Non-Provisional Patent Application No. 18/145,470, titled “Systems and Processes for Multifactor Authentication and Identification.” The newly allowed patent covers proprietary techniques that leverage anonymized data from historic cyberattacks to help identify and prevent future attacks — marking a significant advancement in Trust Stamp's mission to strengthen digital identity protection. Poh explained that identity fraud and related scams cost U.S. consumers an estimated $47 billion in 2024, including $15.6 billion from account takeover fraud and $6.2 billion from new account fraud. Trust Stamp's patented technology enables clients, including major financial institutions, to detect attack vectors in real time and integrate anonymized data from past breaches into machine learning algorithms that proactively flag suspicious activity. The company emphasized that as cyberattacks grow in scale and sophistication — particularly those powered by Generative AI — the ability to adapt and refine defensive models at equal or greater speed is essential. Trust Stamp's approach, built on privacy-preserving AI and multifactor authentication, provides organizations with a scalable, intelligent defense framework that evolves in step with emerging threats. #proactiveinvestors #truststamp #nasdaq #idai #IdentityTech #DigitalIdentity #Fintech #GhanaID #SouthKoreaStartup #AsiaExpansion #KStartupChallenge #FinancialServices #Biometrics #TechExpansion #TrustStamp #IdentityFraud #AIFraudDetection #Cybersecurity #MultiFactorAuthentication #GenerativeAI #AccountTakeover #DeepfakeProtection #TechPatent #ProactiveInvestors

Genflow Biosciences PLC (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest milestone – the granting of its second European patent, which he says is a key part of Genflow's intellectual property strategy in the longevity and metabolic disease space. Leire explained that the patent strengthens the company's position by providing protection not only for the composition of matter but also for specific methods of use, all focused around Sirtuin-6, a core element in the company's technology platform. He stated, “We're building a layer portfolio that combines property, construct, delivery method, and specific applications for human health.” The new patent covers a variant for NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis), but Leire noted that the Sirtuin-6 platform has broader relevance for multiple age-related diseases, including glaucoma, sarcopenia, and other metabolic conditions. He emphasised that strong IP is essential for entering into licensing and partnership discussions with pharmaceutical companies, adding, “Without strong IP protection, there's no potential deal with pharma.” Looking ahead, Leire said that Genflow is prioritising its ongoing dog study and will soon undertake a strategic review to determine which of the many potential indications to pursue further.

This Day in Legal History: Saturday Night MassacreOn October 20, 1973, a pivotal event in American legal and political history unfolded: the “Saturday Night Massacre.” Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox was fired by Solicitor General Robert Bork at the direct order of President Richard Nixon. Nixon's decision came after both Attorney General Elliot Richardson and Deputy Attorney General William Ruckelshaus refused to carry out the order and instead chose to resign. Cox had insisted on obtaining White House tapes related to the Watergate break-in, and Nixon, citing executive privilege, ordered him removed.The dismissals plunged the Justice Department into chaos and sparked widespread public outrage. Nixon's actions were viewed by many as a blatant abuse of power and a threat to the independence of the justice system. Congress was inundated with demands for Nixon's impeachment, and confidence in the executive branch eroded further. Though Bork ultimately carried out the dismissal, he later stated he believed it was his duty to preserve the functioning of the Justice Department.The fallout from the Saturday Night Massacre significantly intensified the Watergate investigation. Within months, new Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworski was appointed, and he continued the push for the tapes. Eventually, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in United States v. Nixon (1974) that Nixon had to turn them over. The tapes revealed evidence of a cover-up, which led directly to Nixon's resignation in August 1974.President Trump commuted the federal prison sentence of former U.S. Representative George Santos, ordering his immediate release. Santos, who had been sentenced in April to over seven years for fraud and identity theft, was serving time for falsifying donor information and inflating fundraising figures to gain support from the Republican Party during his 2022 campaign. His short and controversial congressional tenure ended in expulsion following numerous scandals, including false claims about his education, employment history, and family background.Trump announced the commutation on Truth Social, arguing that Santos had been “horribly mistreated” and drawing comparisons to other “rogues” in the country who do not face such lengthy prison terms. Earlier in the week, Santos had publicly pleaded for clemency, praising Trump and expressing remorse for his actions. The commutation fits into a broader pattern of Trump's second-term use of clemency powers, which included mass pardons of January 6 defendants and relief for political figures from both parties. The Constitution grants the president wide authority to issue pardons or commute sentences for federal offenses.Trump commutes prison sentence of former lawmaker George Santos, orders him released | ReutersA proposed class action lawsuit was filed in federal court in Connecticut, accusing eight major U.S. banks—including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citibank, and U.S. Bank—of conspiring to fix the U.S. prime interest rate for over three decades. The plaintiffs, representing potentially hundreds of thousands of borrowers, claim the banks coordinated to align their prime lending rates with the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate, which is typically set at three percentage points above the federal funds rate. This rate influences trillions of dollars in consumer and small-business loans, such as credit cards and home equity lines.The suit alleges that this coordination inflated borrowing costs for consumers and small businesses, who were led to believe the rates were set independently. It also asserts that up until 1992, the Wall Street Journal published a range of prime rates that reflected competitive differences among banks, but since then has moved to publishing a single rate derived from input by a select group of large banks. Although the Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones are not named as defendants, the lawsuit challenges the transparency and independence of the current rate-setting process.Plaintiffs argue that decades of nearly identical prime rate pricing among the banks defies the notion of independent rate-setting. The banks named in the case have not yet made court appearances and mostly declined to comment. The suit, Normandin et al v. JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. et al, aims to hold the institutions accountable for what plaintiffs call a longstanding, anti-competitive scheme.Borrowers sue major US banks over alleged prime rate-fixing scheme | ReutersChief Judge Colm F. Connolly of the U.S. District Court for Delaware issued a ruling that could significantly alter how early-stage patent litigation is handled, particularly regarding willful infringement claims. Reversing his earlier stance, Connolly held that requests for enhanced damages due to willful patent infringement are not standalone claims subject to early dismissal if the underlying infringement claims proceed. The decision came in a case involving clot-removal device patents, Inari Medical Inc. v. Inquis Medical Inc.This shift may complicate early settlements by increasing uncertainty and widening the valuation gap between plaintiffs and defendants. Because Delaware is a leading venue for patent disputes, Connolly's ruling may influence how courts across the country handle similar motions, although it's uncertain whether other judges will adopt the same reasoning. Legal scholars and practitioners note the opinion could lead to more aggressive pre-suit tactics from patent holders, such as sending demand letters alleging willfulness, which could provoke accused companies to initiate preemptive litigation in favorable jurisdictions.Connolly's approach represents a sharp departure from his prior treatment of willfulness claims and, according to experts, effectively lets plaintiffs include such allegations in their complaints without risk of early dismissal. However, the ruling also reaffirmed that plaintiffs still need to establish pre-suit knowledge of the patents to succeed on claims of post-suit willfulness or indirect infringement.Connolly's Willfulness Ruling Risks Scuttling Patent Settlements This is a public episode.

Genflow Biosciences PLC (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's achievement in securing a major European patent. The newly published patent strengthens Genflow's intellectual property around its sirtuin 6 variant — a core element of its longevity therapeutic platform. Leire described the development as a “major step,” noting it creates a strong defensive barrier against competition. “We are now in the final phase of securing our cornerstone intellectual property,” he said. This form of protection is vital for small biotech firms like Genflow, particularly as it enhances the company's attractiveness to potential pharmaceutical partners. Leire emphasised that, with this patent in place, Genflow now has the IP foundation needed to engage pharma players seriously. He explained that the company is unlikely to fund Phase 3 trials independently, making partnerships essential. “You need to have a strong IP protection. Now we have it with a long life,” he added. Looking ahead, Leire pointed to the upcoming efficacy readout from the company's Dutch study as the next major milestone. The company also hopes the patent will help accelerate early-stage deals around other therapeutic targets, including muscle atrophy (mass), sarcopenia, and glaucoma.

"Innovation is critical to how we solve humanity's most important problems… if there are no patents there is no incentive to innovate, and we realized that the flow to go from an idea to a patent was broken."In this episode, we talk with Tamar Gomez, co-founder of Ankar, a startup redefining how inventors protect and monetize their ideas, and one that daphni is proud to back.Tamar's journey is as impressive as it is inspiring: from studying game theory at Imperial College to her time at Palantir, where she discovered how small, high-performing teams can turn data and insight into impact. It was at Palantir where she met her co-founder Wiem Gharbi, and together they uncovered a major pain point: the path from an invention to a patent was slow, fragmented, and discouraging for inventors.That's where Ankar comes in. Their technology streamlines the entire IP lifecycle: from identifying novelty, to drafting and prosecuting patents, to detecting potential infringements, all of which empower inventors to make the most of their innovations. By leveraging AI, Ankar is making the complexity of intellectual property more transparent, efficient, and accessible.As Tamar says, innovation drives progress and Ankar is ensuring that people behind that progress get the recognition and protection they deserve.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

What happens when the USPTO lets artificial intelligence join the patent process? In this episode, I breaks down the brand-new Automated Search Pilot Program, a six-month experiment where AI runs a pre-exam prior art search before a human examiner even touches your application. I explains what it is, how to join, who it helps (and who it doesn't), and why it might just change the way patents get examined, all with some healthy skepticism about letting robots near our inventions.

Brian Decker gets it. This dude actually gets what it means to be a serial entrepreneur. Not the fake kind you see plastered all over social media. The real kind. Brian spent 22 years building businesses the right way. Started as a CPA. Hated it. Jumped into mortgage lending right before the 2008 crash. Then doubled down when everyone else ran away. Built himself into one of the top loan officers in the country. Made multiple seven figures. Then did something most people never do. He recognized the trap. So he did what real entrepreneurs do.

In 1972, Anson Williams landed the role of Potsie Weber in a segment of the comedy-anthology series Love, American Style titled "Love and the Happy Days", which also introduced Richie Cunningham (Ron Howard), Richie's mother Marion (Marion Ross), and other characters that were spun off into the television series Happy Days. (Only Williams, Howard, and Ross reprised their roles for the spin-off).The new series' first season, during which Williams received second billing after Howard, was centered mainly on Richie and Potsie. Eventually, as break-out character Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli (Henry Winkler) and Richie's mother, father, and sister became more popular, Potsie was joined by Ralph Malph (Don Most, who was merely a side character in season one), and Potsie and Ralph became inseparable.Unlike Howard and Most, Williams was one of the few to remain through the entire run of the series, although his appearances became less frequent in later seasons. In some episodes, Richie, Potsie, and Ralph formed a band combo that performed at Arnold's Drive-In and other places. As Potsie, Williams actually sang lead vocals for the group. Williams' first wife, Lorrie Mahaffey, portrayed Potsie's girlfriend, Jennifer, in later seasons.After Happy Days, Williams began a much more prolific career as a television director, starting with short programs for adolescent-age children, including afterschool specials "No Greater Gift" (1985) and "The Drug Knot" (1986), and TV-movie Lone Star Kid (1986). He has gone on to direct many episodes for a variety of television series, including Beverly Hills, 90210, Melrose Place, seaQuest DSV, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, Xena: Warrior Princess, Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, The Secret Life of the American Teenager, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and Charmed He also directed several episodes of the TV series 7th Heaven.Despite his success as a director and producer, Williams has occasionally returned to his work on Happy Days in retrospective ways. He played himself in a 1996 Happy Days-themed Boy Meets World episode (which also featured former castmates Tom Bosley and Pat Morita). While directing a 2003 episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch titled "Sabrina in Wonderland", he appeared as Potsie in a fantasy sequence. He also joined his fellow Happy Days cast members for reunion specials in 1992 and 2005.Williams is also a businessman. In 1987, fellow Happy Days cast member Al Molinaro and he opened a chain of diners called Big Al's; the business went defunct. He founded Starmaker Products, a cosmetics company, and was a featured speaker at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's National Trademark Expo in April 2008, at which he talked about the importance of registered trademarks for small businesses (and signed autographs for Happy Days fans). Williams is the author of Singing to a Bulldog: From Happy Days to Hollywood Director, and the Unlikely Mentor Who Got Me ThereABOUT THE PERFECT PORTION COOKBOOKAnson Williams is living proof that "Sixty is the New Sexy," and now he shares his own philosophy on fitness in "The Perfect Portion Cookbook," which was recently selected and scheduled by QVC to be launched on Super Bowl Sunday. Anson Williams, best known for his role of on "Happy Days," had the 100-calorie idea, based on his own need to stay fit and still be able to eat the foods he loved. He, along with and JoAnna Connell, contacted Bob Warden (New York Times best selling cookbook author and TV cooking personality), who partnered with Mona Dolgov (experienced nutritionist, cookbook author and marketer for the food and appliance industry) and the result was "The Perfect Portion Cookbook." "It's the first 100 Calorie Count System of its kind," says Anson. "America's Favorite Comfort Foods all in Simple 100 Calorie Portions. It's the easiest calorie count in the world. How cool is that?" Unlike any other programs out there, you can eat what you love and never over eat! The successful entrepreneurial team of Williams and Connell along with Warden and Dolgov, two of the most revered and respected individuals in the cooking world, have created an exciting lifestyle platform that will fight a horrendous problem - obesity. A catastrophic condition in the USA, "The Perfect Portion Cookbook" is a major step toward solving the problem. In a world that has been so "millennial" focused in recent years and where "boomers" are being judged as old or not happening, Anson sets an example of how vital they can be by using the Perfect Portion Control system himself, which has resulted in a slimmer and more energetic outlook.With 150 of America's favorite comfort foods, "The Perfect Portion Cookbook" has everything from French Toast to Lasagna and Apple Turnovers, all with easy, perfect portion control, using a simple 100 Calorie Counting System. The first of its kind, each of the classic comfort food recipes, allow food lovers to eat “guilt free,” because each recipe has been crafted in multiples of 100 calories, to select the perfect portion that is right for the individual. Eat perfect portions of the foods we all love and never overeat!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas sits down with Austin Bonderer, a seasoned patent attorney with over 25 years of experience and more than 700 issued U.S. patents to his name. From his early days as a U.S. Patent Examiner to leading nanotechnology prosecutions for a Forbes Global 100 company, Austin brings unmatched insight into the world of intellectual property and innovation.He shares what working inside the USPTO taught him about the human side of patent law—why building relationships with examiners is just as important as crafting airtight technical arguments. Austin also explains how technology and smart software tools have revolutionized the patent process, keeping quality high even with massive caseloads.For startups, he offers practical advice on avoiding common IP missteps—like premature disclosure and underestimating the power of NDAs and internal SOPs to protect company assets. Austin also tackles one of the field's toughest challenges: how the 2014 Supreme Court's Alice decision disrupted software and diagnostic patents, leaving innovators in legal limbo.Finally, he dives into the complexities of AI-generated inventions, warning that using AI tools in the creative process may unintentionally trigger public disclosure risks under current law.With decades of experience at the intersection of technology, law, and innovation, Austin Bonderer provides a masterclass in how to protect ideas in an era where the rules are still being written.

Researchers at Seoul National University of Science and Technology, led by Professor Hakyeon Lee, developed an AI-based patent abstract generator that identifies and describes technology opportunities by analyzing gaps in patent maps. The system uses text embedding inversion to convert patent data into human-readable descriptions of potential innovations. A case study on LiDAR technology demonstrated the tool's ability to find and detail untapped opportunities in over seventeen thousand patents. The technology aims to provide startups, researchers, and policymakers with accessible innovation forecasting and is being expanded to generate research proposals and patent documents automatically.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

And Rich is the host of the Innovations and Breakthroughs podcast and is the author of The Consumer Guide to Obtaining a Patent, published by the American Bar Association. So Rich, welcome to the podcast.Rich 00:00:46 Thanks so much, Josh. Thanks. Thanks for the warm introduction. And and really great to be on your podcast.Josh 00:00:51 Rich, I'm happy to say that we are a part of that number of 2000 plus, you know, patent successful patterns that you've been able to obtain and counting. Right.Rich 00:01:03 And counting.Josh 00:01:03 Yep. So thank you for your help and helping us get some of those design patterns that we've received for our business.Josh 00:01:10 So rich. Absolutely is the man.Rich 00:01:12 Absolutely. My pleasure. It's really exciting to see kind of what we're creating there in your company in terms of, asset value and protection, you know, against competitors. So, it's really cool. And someday we'll, we'll do a, you know, a Harvard business case study of some kind, to, you know, to take a look at what we've created here. I think it's pretty awesome.Josh 00:01:39 Well, I think that's the hope for both you and I that we're creating some significant value in the long run. Now, Rich, I shared this on previous podcast episodes as I shared some of the mistakes that I've made along my journey. One of those mistakes that I've made was not getting IP protection whatsoever for many of our products for four years, right? We literally went for in our business for four years before, you know, you and I fortunately met. And you're like, dude, you've got to start doing something here. And we had a great conversation.Josh 00:02:13 And now that we started getting copyrights issued for all of our products and then design design patents for some of our products, it's allowed us to actually protect more of our products, because prior to that, as many sellers know, as soon as you launch a product on Amazon, it's months, you know, sometimes as quick as a month later, sometimes 3 to 6 months later, you've got somebody copying your idea and being able to have something to protect yourself and even potentially get some of those other people knocked off or, you know, shut down their listings, I think is essential, especially as Amazon and e-commerce in general becomes more and more competitive. Would you agree with that, Rich?Rich 00:02:56 Yeah, absolutely I agree, and it's funny you mentioned that, like, you, you could put something up there for a month and then you'll find the competition and it's, it's almost as if. Well, I mean, it is as if there are tools that say, you know, copy this or copy that.Rich 00:03:10 There are analytics tools that, that, that point people in the direction of you when you're doing well. And so it's it's almost as if you're the software telling people, copy this guy, you know, and and so it really is, important to create as much of a moat as possible around, around what you're doing to prevent other people from, from copying you. and, you know, it's interesting to, like, in your case, like, a lot of your products are kind of content oriented, that copyrights are an option. for a lot of product ideas, copyrights are not really an option. They don't really provide, you know, covers don't provide protection for ideas. They provide protection for content type expression and then design patents, which you mentioned. Two are for the ornamental appearance for a product. The the look of a product. and I'd say the design patents are an issue for a lot are not an issue or an option for a lot of, sellers. Like if you have a product that has a unique look to it, then design patents are a good way to prevent other people from knocking you off by making a product that looks just like yours.Rich 00:04:24 So, you know, they're both effective tools, for protecting you on Amazon. So, yeah, I agree with all of that.

She thought she had beaten out all scientific competitors when she and her co-author had shocked the world with their groundbreaking technology for gene editing. But turned out, the race had just gotten fiercer. Walter Isaacson sits down with Evan to talk about how one of the most cutthroat scientific competitions in biotech got started around one goal — making CRISPR work for humans, and getting the credit for it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Every masterpiece you've ever consumed likely passed through a licensing agreement first. That catchy song in your favorite commercial? Licensed. The superhero logo on your coffee mug? Licensed. The technology powering your smartphone? Licensed hundreds of times over. Licensing represents the hidden architecture behind innovation empires, allowing creators to extend their reach without surrendering control. Unlike selling your intellectual property outright, licensing lets you maintain ownership while granting permission for others to use it under specific conditions – essentially renting out a room while remaining the landlord.The potential of licensing spans virtually every form of intellectual property. Patents enable inventors to collect royalties from global manufacturers without running factories. Trademarks allow fashion brands and sports teams to appear on merchandise worldwide. Copyrights drive music, publishing, and streaming industries. Even carefully protected trade secrets can be licensed as valuable know-how.But successful licensing requires methodical preparation. You must clearly establish ownership, precisely define scope, protect confidentiality during negotiations, package assets for seamless transition, establish defensible royalty models, and determine governance structures. Finding the right licensees demands strategic targeting – from identifying companies in similar patent classes to exploring industry standards programs and attending specialized trade shows.The negotiation process benefits from structured frameworks: separating positions from interests, understanding your alternatives, presenting multiple equivalent offers, and stress-testing deals through financial modeling. Equally important is recognizing red flags: licensees who overpromise, resist transparency, fight performance standards, demand excessive exclusivity, or operate in challenging regulatory environments.Remember that licenses exist in dynamic markets with changing conditions. Know when to renegotiate (when fundamental assumptions shift), when to walk away (when partners consistently underperform), and when litigation becomes necessary (when your rights are genuinely threatened).Want to develop your own IP protection strategy?
