April 25–26, 2024, New York University School of Law
In Collaboration with Harvard Journal of Law & Technology
The theme of the symposium is on intellectual property (IP) remedies where scholars will be brought in together to discuss and contribute to a journal. This symposium will explore the nature and role of remedies for intellectual property infringement, whether copyright, patent, trademark, or trade secrets. Authors may analyze remedies doctrines through any research modality, such as economics, philosophy, empirical studies, doctrine, history, or policy. Some papers may focus only on litigation topics, but the overall goal of the symposium is to explore more deeply the function of remedies doctrines as backstops for commercialization. Ultimately, the symposium will explore how IP remedies either facilitate or frustrate the commercialization of technologies, artistic works, or other valuable business assets in the global innovation economy.
