The Federal Circuit Bar Association®, with support from the German Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property, is pleased to continue its Global Fellows Program. An extraordinary success, this series promotes a higher level of IP practice among future leaders in the global legal community. The Global Fellows Program brings together a small group for an intensive learning program involving leading judges and practitioners from both countries. In an interactive learning environment, these emerging leaders will together focus on both policy issues and practical lessons on the operation of different patent systems across the globe, enhancing their ability to provide effective legal service to clients. The Global Fellows also develop professional relationships crossing international boundaries and legal cultures that we hope will endure throughout their legal careers.

The Fellows will convene for two sessions, scheduled for first in Washington, DC, from November 4-7, 2025, and then in Munich, Germany from March 10-13, 2026.
