Intellectual Property Owners Association - Managing IP in Times of Crisis
Todd Walters, Chair of the firm’s Patent Office Litigation practice and Co-Chair of the Intellectual Property section, will participate in a discussion about Managing IP in Times of Crisis on April 8 at 2 p.m. For those in our community running a corporate IP department or managing an IP practice, effective leadership is more important than ever during a crisis. How can the you continue supporting clients’ innovation when significant numbers of employees are teleworking and many are without childcare? How do strategies change in response to the disruption of regular research and development and effects on the supply chain? How can IP professionals continue to assist companies in extracting maximum value from their portfolios and continue to create new products and services? Are some industries at a comparative advantage or disadvantage?
