2023 PTAB Bar Association Annual Conference




2024 PTAB Bar Association Annual Conference 
March 6-8, 2024 | Ritz-Carlton in Washington, D.C.


Were you able to join us for the 2024 PTAB Bar Association Annual Conference?  The conference sessions included a full afternoon of sessions led by the PTAB APJs as well as sessions including a dynamic discussion of real-parties-in-interest, DEI issues in the PTAB practice, ethics issues in artificial intelligence, a debate on obviousness with prominent academicians, and a session offering insights from the District Court bench. Attendees were eligible to earn up to 12 CLE credits including diversity and ethics credits and all sessions were live-streamed as a virtual component for those who were under a travel ban or would preferred to participate virtually

We were fortunate to welcome more than 100 judges and officials from the United States Patent & Trademark Office, the United States District Court, and the Court of Federal Claims who engaged with our attendees during the many networking opportunities.
