[E-trademarks] more reasons to attend the reception

Thu Apr 18 12:35:46 EDT 2024

While I do not know if my scheduled will allow me to drop by during the Atlanta reception, I wanted to echo what Carl wrote. I’m one of the listserv members who does more reading and learning from the wisdom shared by others. I was able to stop by the reception in DC in 2022, my first one, and very much appreciated the opportunity to talk shop and schmooze without having to strengthen business ties with vendors or foreign associates.

Thank you,
Leesa

Subject: [E-trademarks] more reasons to attend the reception

I keep thinking of things to add to the reception brochure at https://www.oplf.com/e-t/<https://www.oplf.com/e-t/>:

Here are two paragraphs that I added just now:

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.

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.
