Licensing Executive Society (LES)

The mission of Pierce Law's student chapter of the Licensing Executives Society is to offer students access to the Society's national structure and to facilitate the mission of the national organization.

Licensing Executives Society is committed to advising the Society's membership, international and government bodies, the business community, and the public at large of the economic significance of licensing intellectual property.

Licensing Executives Society is also committed to advising the community of changes about laws in the U.S. and worldwide, which affect technology transfer and licensing of intellectual property rights.

The organization also supports student involvement in Society meetings and seminars, both national and regional.  The student chapter hopes to bring national recognition to Pierce Law students through these networking opportunities.

Challenges in Licensing and Intellectual Property Management Symposium

Along with the many other benefits that come with national LES membership, Pierce Law's student LES chapter sponsors the annual Challenges in Licensing and Intellectual Property Management Symposium. This symposium brings in licensing executives from all over the U.S. to speak at the annual conference held at Pierce Law.

This conference, which is held in early spring, has had speakers ranging from judges on the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, to licensing executives at international companies, to top music industry specialists. The symposium is prompted, managed, and organized solely by the students of the Licensing Executives Society Chapter at Pierce Law.
