Foundation lectures 2023

Foundation Lectures have recently started! They run every Tuesday at 17:30 from the 10 January to 25 July 2023 , generally in person (CIPA HQ in London: 2nd Floor, Halton House, 20-23 Holborn, London EC1N 2JD) and live online (via Zoom) with recordings available afterwards.

The Informals Committee organises a series of Foundation Lectures each year, running from January through to the summer. Each lecture focuses on a specific topic which is of relevance not only to examinations, but also to day-to-day practice for a trainee patent attorney. The lectures are designed to introduce trainees to some of the key topics which are useful in day-to-day work and which form part of the Foundation exams.

All of the lectures are recorded, so that you can listen to them at your leisure and as often as you like. The recordings and slides are available via the Lecture Archive on the CIPA website (www.cipa.org.uk/lecture-archive). Please invite your fellow trainees and we’ll see you there!
