The first Diversity Dialogue webinar in a series of diversity-focused discussions hosted by Harrity’s Elaine Spector features HP’s Shruti Costales and MCCA’s Sophia Piliouras as panelists and covers challenging topics associated with increasing diversity in the patent field.

- What do you think is the greatest issue affecting diversity in general?
Is it appropriate to apply the Mansfield Rule to the patent bar? - What alternative strategies do you believe would be helpful for moving the needle in the patent bar?
