It will cover a wide range of cutting-edge and compelling topics of intellectual property law and feature our popular IP Vanguard Awards event.
The Institute event is attended by members of both large and small leading California IP law firms, various in-house legal counsel, members of the judiciary, and academic professionals practicing in the areas of patents, trademarks, copyrights, litigation, trade secrets, international law, licensing, entertainment and sports law, technology law, social media, and privacy.
This year’s Institute takes place at the Laguna Cliffs Hotel. Book your hotel room NOW for the event at a special rate, available here on an exclusive basis. This special rate is available until October 14, 2022.
Our 46th Annual IP Institute is kicking off a night early on Thursday, November 3rd. Be sure to book your travel plans to meet us for our Welcome Reception. Then on Friday morning, we’ll commence our programming with our renowned keynote speaker, Professor David Nimmer. Up to 14 hours of MCLE credits are available for this event.
Widely recognized as a foremost expert in copyright law, David Nimmer represents clients in the entertainment, publishing and high technology fields. He has twice served as co-counsel representing clients before the U.S. Supreme Court. On the first occasion, a unanimous decision in favor of his client drew the boundaries between copyright and trademark protection. In the second, another unanimous decision in favor of his client set the stage to compensate all freelance journalists in the country for their past articles. Read More
