Corporate Intellectual Property Roundtable

Overview

The Corporate IP Roundtable is meant to be a trusted, closed space where in-house IP professionals can speak openly with peers. It’s about sharing what’s actually happening inside organizations—what’s working, what isn’t, and how others are approaching similar challenges.

Who it’s for

A group of in-house counsel, IP managers, and corporate professionals working close to strategy, portfolios, and innovation. It brings together both experienced practitioners and those earlier in their journey who want to learn from how others are navigating the role.

What we do

Conversations are grounded in day-to-day realities—managing portfolios, working with outside counsel, aligning IP with business priorities. The setting is intentionally closed and confidential to make it easier to have honest, unfiltered discussions.

The group brings in perspectives on topics members are actively dealing with—whether that’s AI, monetization, or new ways of thinking about IP in a business context. Gatherings are led by people with direct, practical experience rather than theoretical approaches.

What you gain

  • Direct access to peer exchange with in-house IP counsel and corporate IP professionals

  • Practical insights, peer-tested approaches, and professional relationships with peers facing similar challenges.”

  • A peer-only forum enabling candid, high-value exchange among in-house IP professionals, and

  • Allows participants to benchmark approaches against peers managing similar IP challenges.

  • Corporate Intellectual Property Roundtable® memberships are for operating companies only.
