WHO WE ARE
The Association of Corporate Patent Counsel (ACPC) is a membership association of Chief Intellectual Property Counsel of businesses operating in the United States. ACPC was created in 1966 to provide a forum for Chief Intellectual Property Counsel (or equivalent) to share best practices related to intellectual property management, operations, strategies and the issues and challenges faced on the job. The Association strives to achieve this by holding two national meetings per year which focus on (i) networking with in-house peers, (ii) having presentations from high quality speakers covering current topics for continuing legal education, and (iii) sharing insights into best practices through benchmarking.
“I have gotten to know several other ACPC members who I can contact between conferences regarding issues my team is facing: organizational design, patent litigation attorney recommendations in foreign jurisdictions, intellectual asset management software likes/dislikes, and miscellaneous service provider recommendations.”

“ACPC CLEs during our meetings are highly informative and among the best that I have attended. I find the IP Operations presentations a great way to see how other IP departments function and find ideas to improve your own department. The openness of the presenters and comradery of the participants is something that sets the ACPC apart from other organizations.”

“ACPC is UNIQUE - it's the only place I can network with and learn from other Chief IP Counsel, from across all industries, in a setting that focuses on our practices and needs. ACPC is not about law firm marketing or just CLE; it's all about the day-to-day practice of Chief IP Counsel. ACPC focuses on our concerns and needs.”
