Let's Get Grateful: IP Stakeholders Reveal What They Were Thankful for in 2024
Briefly

"We should be thankful that the IP community secured bipartisan support for the PERA and PREVAIL Acts, the enactment of which would play a substantial role in strengthening the U.S. patent system and enhancing the American innovation economy. Even if this legislation does not pass the current Congress, the groundwork has been laid for the eventual enactment of these reforms."
"I'm very thankful for the continuing influx of talented attorneys who are drawn to practice patent litigation. The more classes of incoming attorneys I see, I'm very glad I became a lawyer when I did because these newly-minted attorneys are smarter, better, more sophisticated, and more diverse than my classmates and I were when we entered the law over two and a half decades ago. And, relatedly, I'm thankful to train these attorneys and have a front row seat to watch them go on to do wonderful, important work."
"I'm thankful that in the practice of trademark law, there is always something to write about—for example, classic rock bands and who in the group gets to carry the torch. After a music group disbands, who can still use the name? All the surviving members can have a say, but often it leads to disputes over trademark rights and the legacy of the brand."
