Works-in-Progress Intellectual Property (WIPIP) Colloquium Events

Prior to the February 2012 colloquium, WIPIP coalesced around the entrepreneurship and guidance of Mike Meurer and Glynn Lunney. Their efforts, along with the volunteers at the host schools in those early years, set the pattern for WIPIP.

Beginning with the 2012 colloquium, an Organizing Board was formed consisting of a representative from the host school for the upcoming colloquium, and the four prior other persons who served as the representative for a host school.

Thus, in the table below, the Organizing Board for WIPIP is indicated along with the history of the colloquium. Past board members (or host school representatives for those years before there was a board) are also listed for the year the member’s school(s) hosted WIPIP.
