JOIN THE CORPORATE IP MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE ON BEST PRACTICES FOR PROTECTING TRADE SECRETS IN THE AGE OF AI TOOLS

Please join the IPO Corporate IP Management & Operations Committee Wednesday, March 18, at 12:00pm ET, for a presentation by IPO Trade Secret Committee members NICOLE GALLI (ND Galli Law LLC), NANCY SALTZMAN (ND Galli Law LLC), KELLEY BREGENZER (ND Galli Law LLC), and CLARA JIMENEZ (Johnson & Johnson) on their forthcoming whitepaper exploring how the rapid adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools impacts the analysis and factors considered by courts when assessing “reasonable measures” taken to protect trade secrets.

AI platforms have marketed and grown on a promise of efficiency and ease for our business and personal lives, motivating businesses across industries (including more traditional, analog businesses) to explore adopting these AI tools as broadly and quickly as possible.  At the same time, concerns about maintaining confidentiality of trade secrets have become more urgent, and the risks higher. The resulting scenario leaves companies pursuing AI adoption with a complex reality: how to deploy these new AI tools in a manner that is responsible and does not jeopardize valuable trade secrets.

Please contact Astrid Roe for a calendar invite to this meeting.
