INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY GROUP PRESENTS TOPICAL PANELS One of the newest student groups presented a pair of engaging roundtable
discussions this past Spring. Penn Intellectual Property Group, a collaborative
group comprised of students from across the University of Pennsylvania,
was established in the Fall of 2001 to promote intellectual property interest
and activities on campus. R. Bruce Rich L’73, a partner with Weil
Gotshal & Manges in New York, joined a panel to discuss “Regulating the
Creativity Market: Legal Aspects of Arts & Entertainment” in April. Earlier
in the year, Assistant Professor of Law Arti Rai moderated a panel
discussion entitled “Intellectual Property & Life Sciences: Upstream Research
to Downstream Product.” The panel examined how intellectual property rights
affect the transformation of scientific research into bio-pharmacological
products and successful businesses. |
