On March 20, 2024, Willenken partner Amelia Sargent and counsel Ashley Kirk will present a virtual CLE for the Washington State Patent Law Association, titled “Trade Secrets for Patent Lawyers: Implementing an Effective Trade Secret Strategy to Maximize the Value of Your Intellectual Property Portfolio.”

Trade secrets can add value to a company’s IP Portfolio and reduce prosecution costs associated with protecting a company’s innovation exclusively through patents. This CLE will explore when protecting a company’s innovation with trade secrets makes sense and effective methods for protecting those trade secrets.

The Washington State Patent Law Association (WSPLA) is the leading organization for patent attorneys and other patent professionals in Washington state. WSPLA provides a forum for patent and other intellectual property law issues and serves as a valuable resource for patent attorneys, agents, educators, students, and owners of intellectual property.
