Save the Date: IP, Technology and Social Justice in the Time of Coronavirus

With events of this past week still fresh in our minds, the opportunity to come together to find common ground and understand different stakeholders’ perspectives could not have come at a better time. Nor could we have chosen a better partner in IIPSJ, who has built for itself a reputation as a trusted voice of inclusiveness in social, cultural, and economic life.
 
We are honored that Hon. Richard Linn will be delivering the keynote address and Hon. Paul Michel will deliver the opening remarks. They will join experts from academia, practice, civil society, industry, and government online on Friday, September 11, 2020, for what promises to be a riveting and one of the most-needed conversations of our times.
 
Please save the date. I hope to see you there.

A Tribute to Michele Bridges (Part II)

Earlier this week, I posted the first part of our tribute to Michele Bridges, our former Executive Director, featuring former Federal Circuit Chief Judge Michel and former Center Director Richard Gruner: https://bit.ly/3aug7PB. During her time with us, Michele touched many other lives, including those of students, adjuncts, and partners both in the U.S. and abroad. A few wrote to us. With their permission, I am pleased to share their tributes.
