Subject: Proposal to Attend LES Annual Meeting 2024 for Professional Growth

Dear [Boss’s Name],

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to discuss an exciting opportunity that could greatly benefit our organization and my professional growth. I’m requesting your support for attending the LES Annual Meeting 2024, October 20-23, 2024, in New Orleans, LA.

The LES Annual Meeting (LESAM 2024), organized by the Licensing Executives Society (LES), is a top event for licensing and IP professionals. It gathers influential leaders, renowned speakers, and innovative minds globally. This conference provides a detailed program on current trends, advancements, and best practices in licensing and intellectual capital management. It’s a great platform for sharing ideas, learning from industry experts, and staying updated on IP innovation.

Here’s why I’d like to attend, and here’s how I believe [insert company name] could benefit from this experience:

  • Trend-focused IP Insights — The theme of LESAM 2024, "Better Living Through Intellectual Property," promises to equip me with essential skills, knowledge, and a proactive mindset to address pressing challenges. It will position [insert company name] for success by learning from industry leaders who have effectively navigated challenges and uncovering strategies to bolster our company’s resilience.
  • Learning from leading experts — The LESAM 2024 main stage presentations are where licensing professionals from top firms (speakers from more than 35 corporations, such as Novo-Nordisk, Newell Brands, GE Vernova, many universities, various law firms, and other service providers) will share insights and practical experiences directly related to my job. I’ll be able to learn from real-world case studies of success.
  • LES Courses Offered — For an additional fee, LES offers in-person daylong courses: Strengthening Your License – The Sequel to ‘Mechanics of a License, Drafting Patent License Agreements (Parts 1 & 2), Negotiation Skills, a series of three Emerging Leaders Sessions including Due Diligence in IP Licensing – How to Avoid Making Bad Decisions, and the CLP Exam Review Course.
  • Unlocking network value — LESAM 2024 provides an opportunity to establish valuable connections with colleagues in law, technology, and business in life sciences, high tech, energy, academia, etc. These connections can be leveraged to our advantage in the future, fostering collaborations and expanding our professional network.
  • Sharing knowledge — Upon my return, I am committed to sharing the knowledge and insights I gain at LESAM 2024 with our team members who cannot attend.

The current registration rates offer substantial savings, and I recommend securing tickets and making travel arrangements as soon as possible. Learn more about LES2024 by visiting: https://les2024.org/

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
