IP Practice in Europe

The IP Practice in Europe Committee works to establish and maintain relations with professional societies in Europe whose members are interested in intellectual property law.  Committee members study European law and practice and report on issues of interest to the association Board of Directors and membership.

The Committee also provides information on U.S. intellectual property law to any interested party in Europe, if called upon to do so. This Committee coordinates its activities with the International and Foreign Law Committee.
