World Intellectual Property Day

Every April 26, we celebrate World Intellectual Property Day by highlighting the ways in which intellectual property rights foster innovation and creativity. This year's World Intellectual Property Day campaign will put a spotlight on the innovative, creative women leaders who have put their mark on the intellectual property world and Indiana's innovation community

We invite you to a special luncheon hosted by Centric, ChIPs, Mother's Esquire and Faegre Baker Daniels, where ChIPs Founder Emily Ward will kick off the afternoon celebration with a keynote speech. The luncheon will also feature insights from a panel moderated by Amie Peele Carter, Partner at Faegre Baker Daniels, of women leaders.

Panelist:

• Melissa Beckwith, VP Strategy & Innovation, Butler University
• Kristen Cooper, Founder & CEO, The Startup Ladies
• Danielle McDowell, Executive Director, The Speak Easy
• Rupal Thanawala, Account Executive, Accenture

We look forward to connecting with colleagues and celebrating World Intellectual Property Day!
