Welcome to the Summer 2024 Edition of the BIPLA Newsletter. This newsletter includes highlights from our annual Celebration of the Judiciary, updates regarding upcoming activities, and articles from our colleagues and membership regarding IP-related issues in the US and internationally. Finally, please note our call for submission of BIPLA memories in honor of its centennial.

I would like to thank the BIPLA’s administrator, Constance Brennan, and the staff of Readz for their help in preparing this newsletter. If you have suggestions, requests, or submissions for a future issue, please feel free to reach out at newsletter@bipla.org.
