Our IP and Tech Corporate Counsel Conference is happening this week. Hope to see you there! https://bit.ly/3BZdSRk

Corporate counsel play a critical but often underappreciated role in a company’s success. They must interface well with a wide range of stakeholders and balance competing considerations to help their business stay ahead of the competition. In the post-pandemic world, outside counsel will need to recognize new challenges and opportunities to remain relevant and effective.

This one-of-a-kind, one-day CLE program, featuring experienced corporate and outside counsel, will explore relevant intellectual property and technology, issues through honest and practical discussions of topics, including:
Thinking globally, acting locally
Best practices and strategies for IP, tech, and privacy counsel
Tips for patent prosecution, licensing, and litigation
Brand versus budget
Diversity in the profession
