Rocket Mixer® presents "Breakfast at Pearl Cohen"
Hi everyone,
On May 14, we are launching a new Rocket Breakfasts series.
Our founder Andrea Garau, in partnership with Pearl Cohen, are hosting a curated fireside chat centered around one of the most important assets for entrepreneurs today: Intellectual Property.
More than 80% of a founder’s value today comes from intangible assets. This conversation will focus on how IP can be protected, leveraged, and turned into real business value.
The panel will feature attorneys from PC together with founders who have navigated trademark and patent challenges or successfully monetized their IP.
If you’re interested in understanding how a brand, trademark, or patent can become a strategic advantage and financial asset, this conversation is for you.
Panelists —
Sarah Benowich, Senior Counsel at Pearl Cohen
Jacqueline Zion, Partner at Pearl Cohen
Damiano Messineo, Founder of Loopini pizza
Special appreciation to Weirong Li for joining us as the MC of the day. As a global keynote speaker and communication expert, Weirong will be bringing incredible energy and insight to the event.
