ChIPs is proud to partner with organizations that complement our mission to advance women in tech, law and policy. Learn more about these organizations and how we partner with them in support of our mission and our community.
Diversity Lab
We partner with Diversity Lab on the Inclusion Blueprint, an annual survey that is open to Am Law 200 firms by invitation.
In 2017, ChIPs teamed up with Diversity Lab to create the Inclusion Blueprint. This survey provides diversity benchmarks of historically underrepresented groups (female lawyers, underrepresented racial/ethnic lawyers, LGBTQ+ lawyers, and lawyers with disabilities) in law firm leadership and across practice groups (including IP).
The Inclusion Blueprint also includes inclusion efforts for law firms to adopt to ensure their lawyers have fair and equal access to compensation, leadership roles, and other critical career-enhancing opportunities.
International Trademark Association
INTA is a global association of brand owners and professionals dedicated to supporting trademarks and complementary intellectual property (IP) to foster consumer trust, economic growth, and innovation, and committed to building a better society through brands.
They speak for brand owners by working to foster effective laws and policies worldwide on trademark and related rights and to harmonize the implementation of those rights.
In a collaborative effort between dedicated volunteers and staff engaged in 19 advocacy committees, INTA strategically focuses on the most pressing issues for brand protection and enforcement.
IILP
As ChIPs seeks to advance women in IP, we partner with IILP, a leading DEI think tank. Since 2009, IILP has provided the profession with a unique set of empirical tools to facilitate a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive legal profession that is reflective of the society it serves. Widely recognized as the authoritative source for DEI in the legal profession, IILP’s innovative educational programs, research, and publications inspire the profession to think about, and approach, its persistent DEI challenges in new ways.
NAWL
ChIPs is proud to partner with the National Association of Women Lawyers for their 2024 General Counsel Institute (“GCI”), a conference curated for women working in-house.
With in-house counsel comprising over 70% of the audience, GCI creates a unique environment to connect with other women counsel, share the highs and lows of in-house life, and build legal and leadership skills. We hope to see you in New York City on Nov. 6-8!
