Tonight Is the Big Night

After many months of planning, the Women in IP Law Committee will host its 3rd Annual Women in IP Law dinners this evening. The dinners are scheduled to take place in 27 cities throughout the U.S. and Canada but due to weather conditions on the East Coast a couple of locations have decided to postpone their dinners (Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, Dallas, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh). If you were planning on attending one of those dinners stay tuned for more information from the hosts on when each dinner will be rescheduled.

We look forward to seeing you all tonight and encourage those of you who are familiar with twitter to post updates of the dinners throughout the evening. If you do not have a twitter account or are unable to attend a dinner, you can follow “tweets” by searching twitter for #womeninip. We already have quite a conversation taking place online.

Months of planning have gone into tonight’s dinners and we are so grateful to all of the hosts who have graciously volunteered to plan and underwrite the entire cost of each dinner. Thank you also to the staff of AIPLA for their assistance and a big thank you to Hathaway Russell of Foley Hoag LLP for organizing a very complicated dinner party (27 different hosts in four time zones)! Thank you Hathaway.
