WHY JOIN
What IPDR membership actually gets you
Membership is more than a directory entry. It is access to a working community shaping the practice of IP dispute resolution.
Reserved seats at UPC User Forum & workshops
Priority registration and reserved seats at our flagship events — including the UPC User Forum and FRAND working sessions.
Direct exchange with judges and arbitrators
Closed-door sessions where bench, bar and industry can speak frankly about UPC procedure, FRAND methodology and case management.
Early access to guidelines & working drafts
See FRAND ADR and new IPDR guidelines before publication and shape them through working group participation.
An international peer network
Connect with judges, in-house counsel, neutrals, party counsel and academics from across Europe, the US and Asia.
Listing in the IPDR member directory
Corporate and sponsor members are listed in the public IPDR directory — a recognised mark of engagement in IP ADR.
Newsletter & briefings
Concise updates on UPC, SEP/FRAND and IP ADR developments — curated for practitioners, not press releases.
MEMBER DIRECTORY
