IP Futures are very excited to be bringing you Episode Three of our extremely popular series, "What I'd tell my younger self"!

Robert Andrews joined Mewburn Ellis in 2006 as a trainee patent attorney and is now a partner in their Life Sciences team working predominantly in the biopharma sector. As well as this, Robert has now been elected Chief Inclusion and Diversity Officer at the firm and is a signatory to the IP Inclusive Senior Leaders' Pledge.

Robert is going to be speaking to IP Futures with committee lead Rachel Bell (GSK) in an informal "fireside chat" to explain more about this new role, as well as sharing his journey in the profession and what he would tell his younger self. We will touch on a range of D&I topics including for example, the benefits and challenges of being your authentic self.

This is an informal event and therefore we won't be recording. There will be a Q&A session at the end of our discussion where you will have the opportunity to put your own questions to Robert.

Registration

This event is open to IP professionals in all roles – not just attorneys!

If you have specific access requirements, please email ipinclusiveevents@gmail.com and we'll do what we can to help.

Cost

This event is free. So are all our resources. We think it’s important to keep IP Inclusive the right side of the paywall.

That said, we do need money to keep the show on the road, so if you enjoy the event please consider contributing to our 2021-22 fundraising campaign. For more information – including about corporate donations – visit our fundraising page.
