17th Annual IP3 Awards

The IP3 Awards is a special occasion to honor those who have made significant contributions in the three areas of IP: Intellectual Property, Information Policy, and Internet Protocol. This year will be the seventeenth year Public Knowledge has held the awards, and we’re excited to celebrate with you.

Due to the current pandemic, Public Knowledge has decided to host this year’s IP3 Awards online.
