The Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO) will offer a one-hour webinar entitled "How Allyship Advances Diversity & Inclusion in the IP Legal Profession: Part 2 -- The Necessity of White Male Allyship in the Legal Profession" on February 25, 2021 from 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm (ET). Scott Barker of Micron Technology, Inc.; Darryl Frickey of The Dow Chemical Co.; John Harrity of Harrity & Harrity, LLP; and David Kappos of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP will focus on why it is imperative that the majority of the lawyer population -- cisgender white males -- need to be allies to their diverse colleagues and employees. The panelists will share perspectives on why allyship is important to them, what they have learned allyship requires of white men, and what actions they recommend other white men should take to better promote allyship. The panelists will also share lessons learned about how to become a better ally and what can be done to improve allyship throughout your organization (and the legal field).
There is no registration fee for the webinar. However, those interested in attending the webinar should register here.
