64th Annual IP Conference – Registration now Open!

Registration is now open for our 64th Annual IP Conference on Friday, Nov. 13, 2020. For the first time, it will be completely online and we look forward to welcoming you, wherever in the world you might be! With over 80 conference faculty, 14 sessions, virtual receptions, and an expected 500 registrants, it will be our largest and liveliest one ever.

Those who have joined us in recent years would have noticed that we have moved from single-speaker sessions to highly interactive moderated discussions in the format of the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos. We design each from the ground-up by closely consulting with every speaker. This has produced a unique experience for our audience that taps on the best that our speakers can offer, and allows them to address the topics that are most interesting to them.

Legal issues have become increasingly complex, and the overlay of far-reaching technological developments such as AI require legal professionals to be able to both understand and communicate across the sub-specialties such as patent, copyright, trademark, and privacy law. The same can be said about how cross-border commerce requires cross-border partnerships. For this reason, we have increased the number of such sessions so that we continue to offer attendees takeaways that are practical, forward-looking, and comprehensive.
