Good luck to all the @Suffolk_Law 1L’s who are preparing for and participating in their mock oral arguments this week. We “believe” in you!

For the last three days, @suffolk_ip has been hosting the northeast regionals for the annual Giles Rich Moot Court competition. It’s been great to watch the next-gen of #IntellectualProperty litigators showcase their skills!

Mehtab Khan (@Mehtabkn) is in the closing plenary session at her very first #WIPIP conference! The Resident Fellow & lead for Yale/Wikimedia Initiative on Intermediaries and Information is talking about “Recalibrating Fair Use”

Before the closing plenary session of #WIPIP2023, the IP community took a few minutes to celebrate the life of a beloved colleague and brilliant IP scholar, Dmitry Karshtedt. This academic community really is a family.

For months when planning #WIPIP2023, we kept wishing “please don’t snow, please don’t snow” But all good lawyers know you need to use precise and complete language. We should have been wishing for no snow, no extreme cold, and no 4 am fire alarms at the conference hotel!

The 16th Annual Evil Twins Debate is on at #WIPIP2023! Thanks to Univ of Richmond for allowing the @Suffolk_Law IP Center to help host this annual tradition! And thanks to Zahr Said and Bruce Boyden for debating “ChapGPT: Pandora’s Box or Box of Chocolates!

What better way to start off #WIPIP2023 than having @Suffolk_Law’s own Prof. Sarah Burstein (@design_law) talk about her collaboration with Saurabh Vishnubhakat of @CardozoLaw on “Secret Design Litigation”?

#WIPIP2023 is underway! This year, the conference is a hybrid format with presenters and attendees either being here at @Suffolk_Law or online. Kudos to the non-New Englanders who are willing to brave our extreme temps today and tomorrow!

It’s finally time for #WIPIP2023! We here at @Suffolk_Law are excited to see you all in person and virtually over the next few days! It all starts tonight at the Opening Night reception at Sargent Hall and online!

For all of the #intellectualproperty procrastinators out there, today is your day! The priority deadline for #WIPIP2023 presentation requests is TODAY at noon Eastern. bit.ly/3rQzufL 36 minutes to make all your #WIPIP2023 dreams come true!

The @Suffolk_Law MSLL program is participating in the @statnews Open Doors ‘22 event with a breakfast discussion about the future of the life sciences industry. Prof. Landers is discussing this timely topic with Yolanda Lyle, Chief of Staff to the CEO of @pfizer

A guest post on @patentlyo from @Suffolk_Law Prof. Sarah Burstein (@design_law) re: the volume of "Schedule A" design patent cases (ie, where plaintiffs name defendants - and sometimes themselves - only in sealed “Schedule A” doc) in the N. D. Illinois: bit.ly/3DMY5sU

Tonight, the @Suffolk_Law IP Center is happy to host the annual Making Connections in Boston’s IP Community networking event, held by the BPLA (@BostonPatentLaw) Law School Committee. A great way for law students to meet local Boston firms!
