IP Community Connects

BIA IP Community launch: Committee meets the Community

Join us for an exclusive, members-only gathering designed to connect the BIA’s new IP Community with our Intellectual Property Advisory Committee (IPAC). This unique event will provide insights into IPAC’s policy work, highlight key initiatives shaping the IP landscape, and offer an opportunity to engage directly with the experts driving BIA’s advocacy efforts.

Through a fireside chat and networking drinks, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the latest developments in IP policy, hear from industry leaders, and connect with fellow IP professionals in a supportive and collaborative environment. Key topics shaping discussions within the community include:

  • Copyright & AI – navigating emerging challenges
  • Antibody patenting hurdles – overcoming evolving barriers
  • WIPO's patent disclosure requirements for genetic resources
  • The Unified Patent Court (UPC) – what it means for biotech
  • And many more critical developments impacting the sector

This event is a unique opportunity to learn more about IPAC’s initiatives, network with industry leaders, and discover how you can contribute to and benefit from our collective efforts. Join us and be part of an influential network dedicated to protecting and advancing IP in the life sciences and biotech sector.

This event is strictly for members of the BIA IP Community.
