INNOVATE
We’re bringing Big Ideas to the Big Easy this Spring! Innovation
and integration are at the forefront of our strategy in 2015 and
we plan to transform how you manage your IP. Our new program
will keep you abreast of the products you use and love; while
also guiding you to explore new ways to use our products in
the future. Join us in New Orleans and experience new ways of
managing your IP.
Collaborate
There are many new ways to collaborate during the conference —
attend a focus group during the new Intermix sessions to discuss
business issues with your peers in the areas of data verification,
product integrations and much more. Or, stop by the lab to meet
one-on-one with your product experts. You may also want to get
a demo of IP Forecaster and First To File.
To gain exclusive access to your schedule and learn
more about the Intermix sessions, download the event
app on your phone! You will also be able to network
with other conference attendees in real time.

session because many new exciting changes in this space will be
unveiled.
