Tony is a member in GTC’s IP Strategy, Mergers & Acquisitions, and Business & Technology Transactions groups. He focuses on mergers and acquisitions, strategic development of patent portfolios, valuing and commercializing intellectual property assets, and licensing and other technology-related transactions. In addition, Tony founded and oversees the firm’s Open Source Compliance and Due Diligence practice and has extensive experience advising clients regarding the use of open source software. He has reviewed the results of literally thousands of code scans.
Tony is also the Co-Lead of GTC’s Artificial Intelligence practice and has counseled clients regarding traditional AI/ML (i.e. algorithmic/rules-based) for many years and has more recently focused on generative AI. He specializes in data set licensing and strategies for acquiring and collecting data, developing patent portfolios focused on AI inventions and applications of AI technologies, developing AI-related contract terms, risk assessment and mitigation, and related policies and guidelines, in respect of using AI to generate and test software code and the intersections between open source software and AI. Tony is the co-chair of the AI & Cloud Computing sector of the Licensing Executives Society.
Tony’s clients range from individual inventors to Fortune 100 companies. Given his extensive experience on both the buy and sell sides of mergers and acquisitions, patent purchases/sales and IP/technology licensing transactions, he is a trusted advisor to clients on all sides of the table. For acquirers, a key strength is his ability to leverage this experience to quickly identify and assess IP-related risks. On the sell side, this experience translates to grooming clients and positioning IP assets to maximize value and minimize issues during rigorous due diligence.
Prior to joining GTC, Tony was a member of the IP & Technology, Internet & E-Commerce and M&A practice groups at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom. He has research and professional experience in a diverse range of fields, including patent valuation, law and economics, molecular evolution, apoptosis, and lipid biochemistry.

He is admitted to practice in Massachusetts, New York, Ontario, and before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (with Limited Recognition).
Wael focuses on M&A due diligence and technology-related transactional matters. Wael specializes in open source software licenses, commercial licenses, strategic and commercially-sensitive NDAs, and IP strategy advice. Wael also has deep technical knowledge in machine learning. Before joining GTC, Wael was an Associate at Ridout and Maybee LLP where he drafted and prosecuted patents for various technologies, including electrical, machine learning, blockchain, telecommunication, and computer-related technology, before both the USPTO and CIPO.
Before becoming a technology attorney, Wael was a research scientist and software programmer for several years. He published scientific papers in conferences and journals in machine learning, biometrics, computer vision, signal and image processing, and statistical signal processing. Wael holds a J.D. from Osgoode Hall Law School, and a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Toronto with a dissertation focused on artificial intelligence.

Revenera has announced the creation of an OpenChain ISO/IEC DIS 18974 conformant program for managing open source security assurance. This builds on previous adoption of OpenChain ISO/IEC 5230, the International Standard for open source license compliance, and underlines their on-going commitment to open source process management.
“Revenera’s adoption of the OpenChain international standard for open source security assurance, following our adoption of the standard for open source license compliance, demonstrates our dedication to being a leader in using safe, secure open source software. Revenera is one of only a handful of organizations that are OpenChain ISO/IEC DIS 18974 conformant; we are honored to be on the forefront and hope that other organizations will also pursue this standard to help secure their software supply chain,” said Alex Rybak, Senior Director of Product Management at Revenera. “As someone responsible for Revenera’s open source program office (OSPO), having both OpenChain certifications helps us define, administer, and continuously improve our program to conform to evolving industry best practices.”
“The OpenChain process management standards are designed to help businesses use open source more effectively and efficiently,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain General Manager. “Revenera has proven to be an enthusiastic participant in the OpenChain community of conformance, and also an active contributor to knowledge-sharing in our field. The future of collaborative technology like open source depends on this type of positive, sustainable engagement, and I look forward to our continued partnership as the supply chain evolves.”

The funeral of Ueda San of Sony took place yesterday. Many of us have known him for many years. Some of us have known him for a little while. Others, perhaps, have only recently heard of him.
One important thing to know about Ueda San is that he built the open source community in Japan alongside others such as Hashimoto San, Eto San, Shibata San and the rest of the “old guard.”
Building the open source community in Japan was not easy. Previously, companies operated in silos, and it was a radical idea to throw open the doors and allow engineers to mix and mingle. There was risk, there was fear, and there was the stubborn tide of habit.
It takes an iron will to change an entire industry. Ueda San was extremely kind and gentle, but he would not yield on the importance of open collaboration. He knew the value it gave to people, to business and to society. Ueda San really believed in community and collaboration. He was tireless in promoting it, and he insisted that more and more people should be educated in its value.
Ueda San was a key part of forming the OpenChain Japan community. He was also a key driver behind our early outcomes, including the exceptional Supplier Education Leaflet. His tireless encouragement of younger generations is an example we can all learn from.
It is because of Ueda San and his contemporaries that the OpenChain Japan Work Group exists. Instead of closing doors, our board members decided to create an environment of complete openness. We built this community to network people, to share knowledge, and to fundamentally improve how companies use open source.
This is the difference between long term and short term thinking. By creating communities that freely welcome people, they can learn your values. They mirror your values. They multiply your effort. Then, together, you change far more than you could ever accomplish alone.
And now? Now we have an environment in Japan where more and more companies are adopting standard processes around open source. We have more engineers and managers meeting, talking and learning. We are all in a better position to do more things.
It is our responsibility to take that potential and apply it. It is also our responsibility to remember that the freedoms and advantages we enjoy come from the hard work of others. Without Ueda San spending thousands of hours advocating, perhaps there would be a much smaller community in Japan.
Ueda San was a dreamer who actually created new realities. He was an artist, and he saw the world as far more than numbers. Indeed, Ueda San spent countless hours capturing the beauty of nature as a photographer. When I think of him, I think of how these values drove him, and changed us all for the better.
This is the final photograph Ueda San posted on Facebook before he died. A dragonfly. What a perfect metaphor for life and for friendship. A moment of beauty. A moment that passes. All we can do is appreciate it, and treasure the memories left behind.
