Global IP and Trade Summit 2027

The summit takes place at Marriott Sanibel Harbour Resort.

The stated audience includes international practitioners, government agencies, academic experts, in-house counsel, and outside counsel.

It is most useful for in-house and outside counsel who handle cross-border IP portfolios, since the program ties tariffs, export restrictions, trade agreements and data regulations to enforcement strategy and brings together practitioners, government agencies and academics. IP lawyers with a purely domestic practice would get less from it, and the AIPLA organizer and resort setting point to a smaller, specialist gathering rather than a large trade show.

Attorneys at IP and trade conferences usually wear business casual to business professional during sessions, with the tie often dropped in a resort setting.
