Please join us for the first IP Colloquium event of the spring semester! 

Johanna Wilbert, a partner at Quarles & Brady, will be visiting Eckstein Hall to talk to students about her IP litigation practice. Ms. Wilbert has a sophisticated practice in many different areas of IP, including not only utility patents, trademark, and copyrights, but also trade secrets, false advertising, and design patents. She litigates at both the trial level and appeals, as well as counseling clients on their IP strategy. Among other things, Ms. Wilbert will be discussing her work for a major athletic apparel manufacturer involving design patents, utility patents, and trademarks, as well as a recent favorable claim construction decision in a patent case. Ms. Wilbert will also be speaking about how she is increasingly using AI in her litigation practice.

All students are welcome! Lunch will be served; if you have not already been counted, please email Professor Boyden so we can accurately estimate attendance.
