The Intellectual Property Law Society (IPLS) is planning a lunch-hour speaker event featuring a former technology executive and current expert witness in patent litigation. The discussion will focus on technology standards, the role of patents and other intellectual property considerations in the development of those standards, and the speaker’s experience working with attorneys as a technical expert in patent litigation. The event is expected to have a conversational format with opportunities for students to ask questions about the intersection of technology, intellectual property, and legal practice.
