California Lawyers Association 2023 IP Institute

by California Lawyers Association

The 47th Annual IP Institute, organized by the Intellectual Property Law Section of the California Lawyers Association, took place from November 2 to 4, 2023, at the Omni San Diego Hotel in the Gaslamp District. This premier conference brought together leading professionals in intellectual property law for a comprehensive exploration of current trends and developments in the field.

The event featured a diverse array of sessions covering critical topics such as IP valuation fundamentals, strategies for protecting and enforcing IP in virtual environments, and the implications of the "safe harbor" provision in drug development. A highlight was the keynote address by Eric Goldman, Associate Dean for Research at Santa Clara University School of Law, who provided insights into Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act and its relevance to IP law.

Attendees had ample opportunities for networking through events like the welcome reception and the Cannabis Nightcap, fostering connections among peers. The conference also honored outstanding contributions to the field with the IP Vanguard Awards, recognizing excellence in private practice and academia.

This institute was ideal for IP attorneys, in-house counsel, members of the judiciary, and academic professionals seeking to stay abreast of the latest developments in intellectual property law and to engage with a community of experts dedicated to advancing the profession.
