Next Level Learning - A unique program of master classes focused on effective communication.
The 2021 Virtual Mid-Winter Institute brings together nationally recognized communication experts and IP leaders in a series of master classes on negotiation, persuasion, and communication. These online sessions and hands-on workshops are designed to help practitioners sharpen their skills and develop strategies to improve communications and their practice.
Whatever your role in IP and whatever your experience level, this program will give you real-world examples and tactics to communicate more efficiently - both verbally and in writing. Plus, our session and workshop on negotiating skills will help you sharpen your skills and make better deals, whether in the courtroom or the board room.
The virtual #aiplaMW21 allows the global IP community to safely share ideas and knowledge that will shape the future. Your registration includes not only the live virtual sessions, but unlimited access to the on-demand recordings as well. You’ll be able to participate in all the motivating moments of the meeting regardless of where you are.
