Join us at the Virtual Water Cooler!
Drop by for our casual meetup that lets you catch up with old colleagues and friends while making new ones.
Based on member feedback, we're continuing our Virtual Water Cooler meetups through the end of the year! We know that we as continue in large measure to work-from-home, we're still missing the regular connection with our colleagues. That’s why AIPLA’s Committee on the Profession is inviting you to join us around the virtual water cooler for a 30 minute break.
This is an opportunity to say hello to people you may (or may not) know for a few minutes, and see IP colleagues much as you would at the office water cooler. Nothing to do in advance except register, and we are doing that simply so no one gets Zoom-bombed.
This is free and open both to AIPLA members and non-members interested in IP (feel free to share this invite to others in IP), but sorry - you will have to bring your own water.
Scheduled Time: 3:00 pm ET
Dates:
Wednesday, September 15th
Wednesday, October 20th
Wednesday, November 17th
Wednesday, December 15th
