We are delighted to host the International Delegates Dinner on Saturday 4 June 2011 at the Globe Theatre - a faithful reconstruction on the original site of that London theatre by the same name which is so closely associated with William Shakespeare. Built in 1599 by Shakespeare's playing company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men, the original theatre was destroyed by fire on 29 June 1613. Sam Wanamaker the celebrated USA film director and actor was a keen driver behind the reconstruction of the Globe - which project was completed in 1997.

The main delegates dinner on 6 June 2011 will be hosted at the Royal Courts of Justice, the scene of many landmark high profile decisions and therefore there could not be a better place for a conference of intellectual property lawyers. Designed by George Edmund Street, since 1882 this splendid neo Gothic building in The Strand has been the permanent home of the High Court and Court of Appeal.

The Gala Dinner will take place at Park Plaza Hotel on 8th June 2011.
