FREE Women in IP Webinar on September 18th Open to All Attendees.
I am going to be the moderator for this AIPLA Women in IP webinar on September 18th, sponsored by Drinker Biddle:
The webinar by the AIPLA Women in IP Law Committee: “Overcoming Client Development Challenges for Women Lawyers” was a great success. We have planned our next webinar: “Engaging the Room YOUR Way” with Karen B. Kahn, Managing Partner of Threshold Advisors, LLC for September 18, 2012. However, we need your support to make this and future webinars happen. Please contact Yelena Morozova (yxm@cll.com) or Debora Plehn-Dujowich (Debora.Plehn-Dujowich@dbr.com) about sponsorship opportunities. As a sponsor, your firm name would be prominently displayed in all webinar announcements and your firm would be thanked during the webinar itself. Thank you. Below is a short description of the webinar:
Does the avalanche of invitations to seminars, conferences, charity events, and holiday parties excite you or fill you with dread?
Hundreds of lawyers report that they find going to these events to be sheer torture and a waste of time. Many times, you don’t have a real choice – you have to go to certain events as part of your job and/or family responsibilities. Instead of focusing on the negative, can you find ways to make these events fun and productive? For example you can earn CLE credit and expand your relationship network at the same event. With many seminars, conferences and holiday events looming on the horizon, we are pleased to present a practice webinar that provides specific instruction about how attendance at gatherings can lead to the acquisition of new knowledge, relationships, opportunities and actual enjoyment.

I attended the AIPLA Annual Meeting in Washington DC in October, 2011. The AIPLA New Lawyer’s Committee asked me to write about my experience as a first time attendee, for their newsletter Business Casual.

Many apologies for the recent silence. I have been working on a new blog for the American Intellectual Property Association (AIPLA) Women in IP Committee. I am happy to announce that the blog is up and running. Visit www.womeninip.wordpress.com for news, announcements, articles, book reviews and inspiration!
The blog was officially unveiled at the AIPLA Mid-Winter Institute in Las Vegas this week, during the Women in IP Breakfast that was sponsored by my firm, Drinker Biddle & Reath. The breakfast was a great success, and I really enjoyed the entire meeting. It allowed me to connect with other IP attorneys and to make valuable new friendships and connections.
