ChIPs is a global community with thousands of members and nearly one dozen regional chapters in the United States and abroad. Membership is open to anyone who shares our mission of advancing and connecting women in technology, law and policy.Our NameChIPs stands for "chiefs in intellectual property," a key position in corporations overseeing issues surrounding patents, copyrights, trademarks and other areas of law central to innovation. It's a position that, historically, few women have held. IP chiefs typically have both a technical degree, such as engineering or computer science, coupled with a law degree. Given the underrepresentation of women in STEM fields, this area of the law has persistently suffered from a wide gender gap.While our community is much broader than the IP specialists who formed it, we are still ChIPsters — and we think of everyone in our ever-growing network as our ChIPster sisters.Learn about membership at: https://chipsnetwork.org/connect-globally/membership/Apply for membership at: https://chipsnetwork.org/connect-globally/join-chips/
