On Wednesday, October 21, from 8:00 to 9:30 a.m., Seyfarth's Washington, DC office will host an exclusive event for defense, aerospace, and dual-use technology innovators.

Designed for founders, executives, investors, and in-house leaders at emerging and growth-stage companies, this program will explore the legal and business challenges that frequently arise as organizations transition from early-stage ventures to scalable enterprises.

Following informal networking over coffee and light refreshments, attendees will hear a series of dynamic fireside chats featuring experienced legal and industry professionals. Discussions will focus on key issues that can shape long-term success, including:

  • Securing privately-funded innovation in defense contracts and subcontracts through intellectual property protective approaches to government data rights
  • Building and strengthening your brand through trademark protection and proactive brand management
  • Attracting, developing, and retaining talent through workforce management and employment solutions in a competitive, highly regulated market
