The USPTO and AIPLA are hosting the 30th Annual Partnering in Patents event remotely as a pre-conference event to our Annual Meeting. This virtual, one day program fosters an open dialog between AIPLA members and the USPTO.

The program has two parts: a morning focus session, and the afternoon program.  There is a separate registration for each part. Links to both are below.

AGENDA

10:00-11:30 AM virtual focus session - (This session is full, however you may still register for the afternoon panels.)

In virtual roundtables, a mix of practitioners and USPTO members will discuss 3-4 topics to generate ideas and best-practice suggestions. These sessions are limited to 80 participants. If you are interested in this session, please register using the separate link above. We are looking for an even number of outside practitioners and USPTO participants.  

12:00-3:30 - Welcome remarks followed by three 1-hour panels (no seat limit): To register for the afternoon panels, please click here.
