SUMMARY:2nd Annual Voices for Liberty Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 15\, 2024\n8:00 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. (with reception to follow) \nFree and open to the public. \n\nDoes free expression help or harm the cause of social progress? Does freedom of speech entrench an unjust status quo\, or is it a crucial tool for groups wishing to challenge it? \nThese questions divide us everywhere — on social media\, on campus\, and in judicial decisions. Until now\, however\, the debate in academic literature has been overwhelmingly one-sided. Voices for Liberty\, an initiative of the Liberty & Law Center at Scalia Law\, aims to broaden that debate\, bringing in new perspectives. \nJoin us for a full day of senior scholars and exciting new voices presenting cutting-edge research on the role expression played in women’s economic freedom and self-segregated communities\, and continues to play in religious minority and nonreligious rights and international racial tolerance. \nFor more information about this event\, as well as to register\, please visit our event listing. \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:(Virtual Panel) “Industry 4.0: Formal and tacit manufacturing knowledge in technology transfer and intellectual property”
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, June 15\, 2023\n1:30 – 3:00 PM Eastern\n(Convert time zones) \nHosted Online via Zoom \n–  Visit C-IP2.GMU.EDU to Register for Free  – \nIn recent years\, industry leaders and policymakers have begun to assess implications of a fourth industrial revolution that features rapid scalability from prototype to production\, use of AI and robotics across the economy\, and mass customization of consumer products. At the same time\, nations are competing to attract high tech manufacturing through subsidies for strategic industries and enacting barriers to trade in areas of national interest. However\, the manufacturing of electronics\, medicines\, and other technology products involves on a complex mix of tacit (often trade secret) know-how and formal knowledge that can be protected through patents and trademarks. This panel will explore formal and tacit knowledge in technology transfer\, manufacturing\, and industry 4.0. In a period of increasing trade barriers\, can technology transfer benefit both sending and recipient nations? What insights do we gain from history for the present situation\, and how should policymakers respond to rapid technology change? What implications does industry 4.0 have for the IP system internationally? \n\nSpeakers \n\nRobert D. Atkinson\, Founder and President\, Information Technology Innovation Foundation (ITIF)\nDr. Almesha L. Campbell\, Assistant Vice President for Research and Economic Development\, Jackson State University; Chair\, AUTM Board of Directors\nPatrick Kilbride\, Senior Vice President\, Global Innovation Policy Center | U.S. Chamber of Commerce\nModerator: Arthur Daemmrich\, Director\, Arizona State University Consortium for Science\, Policy & Outcomes\n\n\nThis panel is hosted jointly by C-IP2 and by the Arizona State University Consortium for Science\, Policy & Outcomes. The virtual event is open to the public and also part of the 2023 WIPO-U.S. Summer School on Intellectual Property program.

SUMMARY:The Future of Rights: Frameworks\, Trends\, and Alternative Visions
DESCRIPTION:The concept of rights has informed our understanding of the freedom of persons in the context of the power of the state. But our understanding of the content of rights has changed over time. How were rights understood in the past\, and how do we understand them in the present? And how can we use our answers to those questions to better inform our understanding of rights in the future? These questions\, and others like them\, will be addressed at this half-day\, online conference.

SUMMARY:C-IP2 2022 Annual Fall Conference
DESCRIPTION:IP on the Wane: Examining the Impacts as IP Rights Are Reduced \nAfter decades of efforts by some to slow the perceived expansion of intellectual property rights (IPR) around the globe\, policymakers and courts in a number of countries have responded by placing greater limitations on IPR. Now that such limits have been in effect for a few years\, researchers have been able to start measuring the impact on innovators\, creators\, and the overall economy. C-IP2’s Annual Fall Conference brings together leading researchers\, policymakers\, creators\, and innovators to share their experiences and results. \nRegistration now open!

SUMMARY:The Judiciary\, the Rule of Law\, & Civil Justice in Ukraine: A Judicial Education Perspective
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join a webinar on The Judiciary\, the Rule of Law\, & Civil Justice in Ukraine: A Judicial Education Perspective hosted by the Law & Economics Center at the George Mason University Antonin Scalia Law School. \nDate: Tuesday\, April 26\, 2022\nTime: 12:00 – 1:00 PM EDT \nRegister Here: https://web.cvent.com/event/9e724fea-a093-42b5-b462-082d09e088bd/summary \nWhat is the state of the judiciary in Ukraine and why should we understand it? Our panelists will answer these questions and more. \nU.S. federal and state judges regularly teach\, mentor\, and act as ambassadors throughout the world. They educate judges in other countries about the Rule of Law\, judicial independence\, judicial ethics\, civil justice\, and other unique aspects of the American judiciary system. Their first-hand experiences offer a perspective of foreign judiciaries up close. \nOur panelists for this LEC webinar are three U.S. federal judges who have spent considerable time in Ukraine as observers of its judiciary and as instructors to Ukrainian judges. They will reflect on their experiences\, provide their perspectives\, and discuss how the judiciary is coping with the present-day conflict—sharing stories of Ukrainian judges who have swapped their judicial robes for fatigues. \nFor questions about the event\, please contact Dominic Scavuzzo at dscavuzz@gmu.edu or 703.993.8388.
