The inaugural IP Dealmakers European Edition is scheduled for April 18-19, 2024, at the Royal Lancaster in London. This event is organized by Dealmakers Forums, renowned for assembling influential decision-makers and thought leaders from various sectors to engage in in-depth discussions, debates, and dealmaking within the intellectual property (IP) domain.
Key topics to be covered include the current state of IP in Europe, emerging opportunities in IP monetization, and strategies for leveraging the Unified Patent Court (UPC) to build global litigation strategies. Sessions will also explore IP financing models, the importance of trade secrets, and the role of storytelling in IP litigation.
Attendees will benefit from one-to-one meetings facilitated through a dedicated app, providing opportunities to connect with peers, investors, and industry experts. The event will feature a keynote address by Sir Richard Needham, former Minister of Trade and Deputy Chairman of Dyson, highlighting the critical role of IP in Dyson's success. Additionally, the co-location with LF Dealmakers, focusing on litigation finance, offers expanded networking possibilities with legal, finance, and business executives.
This event is ideal for corporate IP owners, licensing executives, tech transfer officers, litigation funders, investors, strategic advisors, and other key stakeholders seeking to stay informed on the latest developments in IP and to engage in meaningful business transactions.
