Robert E. Cannuscio, Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP

Please join our distinguished panel of attorneys in a discussion focusing on cutting edge intellectual property issues. The ArmenBar is especially pleased to have Christy Susman join the panel. She is an in-house intellectual property attorney for one of America’s largest producers of wines and spirits, and has unique insight into the impact of social media on intellectual property and the challenges of protecting famous trademarks. The panel will begin with an overview of the basics of intellectual property law and will delve into a discussion of the impact of social media on intellectual property issues. The prevalence of social media has altered how consumers view and make use of brands, and in turn the manner in which brand owners protect their valuable intellectual property.
