Managing IP

IP Corporate Strategy Summit 2020

September 10-11, virtual event

The IP Corporate Strategy Summit is going virtual

Escaping Covid-19 needs collaboration and a lack of monopoly, so how is the IP industry responding?
 
Amid the global pandemic, priorities may need to be revisited and processes re-evaluated as IP strategists are faced with increased pressure to balance risk, reduce costs, all whilst maintaining productivity. Managing IP will host the fourth annual IP Corporate Strategy Summit to discuss critical IP issues in a virtual format to stay connected with leading strategists in this uncertain and volatile landscape.

WHAT IS A VIRTUAL FORUM?

Through the use of a specially designed events platform, all content, presentations, panel discussions, and participation in breakout sessions and networking groups can be viewed live from a desktop computer or mobile device. You can also view all sessions on demand at a time that suits you.
