Welcome to the San Diego Chapter!
Upcoming Events | Prior Events
Licensing is a key strategy of many of San Diego’s technology-based
companies. As one of the world’s most important technology centers,
San Diego’s life sciences and high tech clusters gather talent from industry,
universities, research institutes and the service professions all seeking highly
informative educational opportunities on different aspects of licensing. The
San Diego Chapter of LES, in following the mission of LES as a whole, holds
monthly meetings where expert speakers are brought in to address licensing-related
issues important to all industries. The meetings also emphasize networking,
the other LES mission. Our Chapter holds one or two purely social events
each year.
The meetings are open to anyone, though non-LES members pay a slightly higher
price. Copies of the presentations are posted on the Chapter's LES website,
and contact information is provided to everyone willing to participate in the
exchange following each meeting. Most sessions qualify for one hour
of Continuing Legal Education credit for attorneys.
Membership is
a very reasonable $225 per year which qualifies you for the lower local meeting
rates as well as substantial discounts on registration for the LES Seasonal
and Annual Meetings. Join LES now. It’s a great deal and
a wonderful organization. I hope to see you soon at an upcoming San
Diego Chapter meeting
