U.S. IP Attachés play a vital role in helping American businesses protect and enforce their rights worldwide, serving as diplomats at embassies, consulates, or missions abroad and offering free services to help U.S. stakeholders navigate foreign laws. In this webinar, Deborah Lashley-Johnson (Acting Director for the IP Attaché Program) will moderate a panel of attachés, each serving a distinct region—from China to Mercosur, the Andean Community, sub-Saharan Africa, and multilateral work in Geneva. They’ll share how they collaborate with local governments, foreign agencies, and international organizations to troubleshoot market-entry challenges and shape global IP standards. In particular, participants will learn:
- The regions attachés cover and how they assist U.S. stakeholders
- Key trends and common pitfalls in cross-border IP enforcement
- Strategies for collaborating with foreign officials and navigating local laws
- How the attachés influence policy at multilateral organizations like the WTO and WIPO
