The 2022 Keynote Speaker, Ticora Davis is one headliner of the event. Attorney Davis founded The Creator’s Law Firm to empower, protect, and advance creatives, CEOs, and Founders in their legacy-driven call to entrepreneurship. The Creator’s Law Firm also revolutionized work culture for women by creating a global model for work-life blend and team building. Having filed over 900 trademark applications and boasting a 98.5% success rate, her Smarts Protection Team of savvy attorneys and advocates are the premier choice for trademarks, general counsel, contracts, business formation and strategy. This Virtual Summit started as a way to provide low-cost CLE for minority IP LAWYERS. All proceeds go to help establish a fund to help young minority women IP lawyers access funding for assistance to hire their first team member and attend conferences.

Speer commented, “I am committed to smashing the statistic that less than 1.8% of IP Lawyers are a minority. We will inspire others to see themselves by recruiting diverse speakers only. That may not be popular, but we know plenty of PHENOMENAL SPEAKERS who are MINORITY IN THIS FIELD that are not given the right opportunities. We aim to be that resource.”
She continued, “We want more young minority attorneys interested in courses taught by minority IP Lawyers and many legal conferences provide a financial restriction that may be holding Aspiring IP Lawyers back from the knowledge they need. This is a free event meant to provide 8-12 FREE CLE HOURS for Aspiring IP professionals. If you’re interested in sponsoring with a giveaway of your IP course, software, access to your CRM, and even payment processor, marketing, VA services, let us know what it is valued at so we can give you appropriate sponsor credit.”
The summit lineup comprises a phenomenally talented minority female and one minority male lineup who all are at varying levels of their trademark law practice. So, make plans to attend this event for these amazing lessons in IP.
