<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">I keep thinking of things to add to the reception brochure at
<a href="https://www.oplf.com/e-t/">https://www.oplf.com/e-t/</a>:</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt">
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">Many, and perhaps most, of the receptions that will take place in Atlanta during this time are (understandably) largely commercial in nature. A typical reception is sponsored by a trademark firm
or trademark service provider, and is (understandably) focused on strengthening the business relationship between the firm or provider and its customers. This reception is intended to be strikingly different, with a focus on collegiality and professionalism
among the members of the listserv community, and an emphasis on good relationships with Offices such as the USPTO and WIPO.
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">As members of the listserv community well know, there are many members of the listserv who are very generous, answering questions posed by listserv members, helping to solve problems faced by
listserv members, and offering mentorship and support to newcomers to the trademark community. This reception is a unique opportunity to meet and thank such generous people.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
