Michael Fenn is a vice president and practice leader at Elysium Digital, specializing in intellectual property litigation and other technology-focused disputes. Mike has seven years of industry experience working as an electrical, systems, and software engineer and more than a decade of experience advising both technology companies and law firms in patent, trade secret, copyright, and Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) matters. He also has experience with disputes involving software development work, software and data contracts, and computer forensic evidence.

Mike has worked as an expert witness or consultant on more than 75 matters touching diverse technologies such as smartphone software, web and database-backed applications, digital rights management (DRM) and other software security controls, distributed systems, virtual reality gaming, medical devices, medical records systems, automotive technology, electronic trading software, and test and measurement software. His work as an expert witness in DMCA matters includes not only analyzing the methods of circumvention, but also analyzing the available volumes of digital evidence to measure the extent of such circumvention for use in damages analysis.

Mike has submitted expert reports and declarations, been deposed, and testified as an expert in federal court during both jury and bench trials.

Mike holds a B.S. in electrical and computer engineering from Cornell University, where his studies focused on computer architecture and digital design, and an M.S. in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, where his research focused on digital signal processing and communication theory.

Prior to joining Elysium Digital, Mike worked at Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems as both a systems and software engineer. In those roles, he provided technical leadership to multidisciplinary engineering teams, developed high-performance radar data and signal processing algorithms, and developed software for large-scale phased array radar systems. Before that, he worked at Abiomed where he developed remote monitoring software and designed embedded systems for an artificial heart.
