History
AIPLA was formed in 1897 as the American Patent Law Association. The name was formally changed in 1983 to AIPLA.[1] The purpose of the organization, as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation, is “to maintain a high standard of professional ethics, to aid in the improvement in laws relating to intellectual property and in their proper interpretation by the courts, and to provide legal education to the public and to its members on intellectual property issues.”[2]
Governance
AIPLA is governed by a board of directors and has a staff of 8,[citation needed] headed by an executive director. AIPLA has over[vague] 60 committees which provide education to members and formulate proposed positions for the Board of Directors to consider adopting as association policy.[citation needed]
Q. Todd Dickinson, formerly the Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office, was named Executive Director in 2008.[3] Dickinson announced his decision to step down in a July 14, 2014 press release.[4]
Lisa K. Jorgenson was named as the new Executive Director during the AIPLA 2014 Annual Meeting.[5]
Vincent Garlock was named as the new Executive Director in September 2020.
