The Trademark and
Unfair Competition Scholarship Roundtable co-hosted by Harvard, NYU, and the
University of Pennsylvania will take place this year at Harvard. The Roundtable
is designed to be a forum for the discussion of current trademark, false advertising, and right of
publicity scholarship, covering a range of methodologies, topics, and
perspectives. Five to six papers will be chosen for discussion over the course
of the Roundtable, with each paper allocated an entire hour for discussion and
assigned a commentator.   

The Roundtable will
be held on Friday, October 18, 2024. If there is a critical mass of papers, we
may also extend the Roundtable through Saturday morning, October 19.
Participation at the Roundtable will be limited and invitation-only and we
expect all participants to have read the papers in advance. The Roundtable will
cover the travel and lodging expenses for invited authors. 

We invite
submissions from academics working on any aspect of trademark, false
advertising, marketing, right of publicity, or related areas of the law.
Priority will be given to those who can attend the entire event and a dinner
the night of Friday, October 18. Submissions must be of full drafts in
Microsoft word format. The deadline for submission is May 15, 2024, and
decisions on participation will be made shortly thereafter, ideally, by June
1st.   

To submit a draft
paper, please fill out the form here (https://ift.tt/FigKkf5) and
upload an anonymized version of your draft. 
Please note that the maximum file size that may be uploaded is 10MB.
Appendices or other supporting material can be uploaded separately; please do
not submit a CV or cover letter.
