Join the UNLV Libraries Patent & Trademark Resource Center powered by Switch for a dynamic celebration of World Intellectual Property Day, where innovation meets competition. This year’s theme explores how intellectual property fuels creativity, branding, and global impact across the world of sports, from the business of major leagues to the legal frameworks that protect athletes, teams, and ideas.

Hear from an expert lineup of leaders shaping the field, including Hunter Campbell, chief business officer of UFC; Justin Campbell, UNLV senior associate athletics director of compliance and student services; and Caleb Green, intellectual property attorney at Howard & Howard. Throughout the day, engage with presentations, panel discussions, and networking opportunities designed to connect theory with real-world application.

Guests will also have the opportunity to experience Dreamscape Learn through guided tours and connect with fellow attendees during dedicated networking sessions. Lunch will be provided for all registered guests.
