USPTO Alert

Name, Image, Likeness for student-athletes

Please note: The previous alert on this event stated that the fireside chat would include Freddie Crittendon III, 2024 Team USA Olympian. This has been corrected on the event page to clarify that, while he will be a speaker at the event, the fireside chat will feature Kate Fitzgerald, ASU student-athlete and entrepreneur, and USPTO Deputy Director Derrick Brent.

If you're interested in leveraging your image and influence to monetize your personal brand, join us in person or online on Thursday, October 10, for the kickoff event in a new Name, Image, Likeness (NIL) series for student-athletes. 

This first event is in collaboration with Arizona State University (ASU) and will take place virtually and in person at ASU Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law in Phoenix, Arizona.

The speaker lineup includes USPTO, industry, academic, and legal experts, and 2024 Team USA Olympian Freddie Crittendon III. The event sessions will cover:

• Personal experiences and testimonials regarding NIL
• NIL basics
• How to protect NIL rights and negotiate NIL agreements
• Trademark basics for NIL

You can find the full agenda and speaker lineup on our event page.

This hybrid event will occur from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. PT with a lunch break.
