ChIPs, the international organization that advances and connects women in technology and intellectual property (IP) law and policy, profiled Yetter Coleman LLP partner Natalie Alfaro Gonzales for its 20 Years of Impact Report.
A ChIPs member since 2015, Gonzales leads the organization’s Texas chapter and is a member of its Global Summit Committee. The profile explores how ChIPs has impacted Gonzales’s career and supported her growth as an IP litigator.
“ChIPs is a special organization, Gonzales said in the profile. “Seeing other women achieve their own successes — however success looks to them — then reach back to offer a hand to those coming up behind them has been inspirational and empowering. … The women of ChIPs have taught me a great deal about leadership, resilience and authenticity — traits I’ve found essential to finding my own success.”
Gonzales handles IP disputes for companies in technology, energy, finance, telecommunications, manufacturing and other industries. Her experience includes patent infringement cases, trade secret matters, and other IP-related disputes in federal courts and before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Gonzales has been recognized by Chambers USA and Best Lawyers for intellectual property litigation.
