President's Message
President's Message
By Joshua Dalton, Morgan Lewis & Bockius LLP
Welcome to our Fall 2024 newsletter. The holidays are almost here, and we are all still getting used to it being night before 5:00 p.m.
As this is my last message as President, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude to our long-time administrator Constance Brennan for their years of service to the Association, as well as introduce you to our new Events & Communications Manager, Spencer E. Jawitz. Spencer comes to us with deep experience in building and maintaining associations, as well as handling events and social media. He has already hit the ground running and we are excited to see how Spencer will continue to apply his skills in his new role.
And, of course, you will have the opportunity to say hello to Spencer and the rest of us soon at our Annual Meeting on December 4, 2024, at the State Room. We are looking forward to hearing from our keynote, Administrative Law Judge Lawrence T. Stanley, Jr. of the TTAB.
As we cap off our centennial year, I am grateful that we have been able to restore some of the community that makes being part of the BIPLA so rewarding. A big part of this is having the opportunity to again catch up with colleagues in person at events like the Symposium, the Celebration of the Judiciary, and next month at Invented Here! and the Annual Meeting. Thank you as always for your energy and support. Please, do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, comments, or concerns. I (and after December 4th, Emily Whelan) can be reached at president@bipla.org.

President, Boston Intellectual Property Law Association
