Examining the CHIPS Act and the Intellectual Property Outcomes for the Tech Sector

The Third Annual Summit on Women Leaders in IP Law brings together women in intellectual property roles to explore industry trends and other important factors impacting today’s women leaders and practitioners in IP. This year’s event highlights the role of women leaders in IP with a special focus on technology and innovation.

IP Litigation partner Mary Prendergast is featured on the panel, "Examining the CHIPS Act and the Intellectual Property Outcomes for the Tech Sector." The panel will analyze the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 and how it will affect intellectual property rights in new technologies. While, the CHIPS Act will boost new technological developments, many question whether it will afford adequate protections to new inventions:

1. Understanding the full effect of the CHIPS Act on semiconductors and beyond
2. Assessing the impact of the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 on innovation and digital technologies
3. Understanding how this legislation will impact new technological advancements
