In September 2023 the women in IP down under made waves with the publication of a new research paper that describes the experiences of women in the IP industry. Our host, Louis-Pierre Gravelle, a registered patent agent and partner at Bereskin & Parr in Montreal Canada, will look at some of the findings in the paper, and the panellists will talk about related issues including why women’s experiences are different to those of men’s, what they have experienced in their working environments, and recommendations for both employers and employees at IP firms.
The panellists are Madeleine Kelly, a patent attorney, partner and board member of the independent Australian and New Zealand IP firm FB Rice. Maryam Khajeh Tabari, a Principal Patent and Trade Marks Attorney at Chrysiliou IP and the lead lecturer for the patent practice subjects at the University of Technology Sydney. And, Ronelle Geldenhuys, a patent attorney and principal at Foundry IP. She is a co-chair and founding member of the Australia and New Zealand chapter of ChIPs, an international not for profit organisation with a mission of advancing and connecting women in technology, law and policy.
