    I attended this conference a few years ago in New York. What a waste of time and money.
    I notice that you don’t advertise PRG courses, which I’ve found to be much better organized and informative, or AIPLA meetings, which generally have very informative sessions. Is there a reason for these omissions?

    Federally Circuitous:
    We have covered PRG courses in the past, and most recently had their April 3-5 Advanced Courses on our weekly Conference & CLE’s calendar. We have also discussed AIPLA events in the past. However, we will try to make a more concerted effort to add relevant events from these groups to our calendar. Thank you for the comment and for reading Patent Docs.
