What our attendees say

The forum was incredibly well organized and impactful, brought together all the right people from the different segments of the LF world, and made it so easy to maximize our time together. I’ve never seen so much accomplished at a conference in so little time.

As a first time attendee and speaker, I wasn't sure what to expect, but the LF Dealmakers Forum exceeded my expectations. The room was full of relevant and high-level people and the conference was organized to make connections.
Peter Buckley

I have attended four IP Dealmakers events to date, and it is the one event each year I prioritize above all others. It balances perfectly the right size of group, quality of content, level of participants and time for networking and deal making.

There aren’t many IP industry events where the most senior executives participate and where discussions of real substance take place. The IP Dealmakers Forum fits that bill and never disappoints.
