Raleigh, NC – Parker Poe Adams & Bernstein LLP is pleased to announce that the International Trademark Association (INTA) has named Sloan Carpenter a rising star. The organization’s rising star program was launched in 2022 to identify and cultivate future leaders and contributors to the intellectual property profession. 

A team of INTA leaders chose individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to the profession and the organization through speaking, writing, or contributing to project teams or committees.

Sloan has been a member of INTA since 2020. She currently serves on the Young Practitioners Committee and previously served on the Unreal Campaign Committee, which helps educate young consumers (ages 14–23) about the importance of trademarks and the dangers of counterfeit products. 

At Parker Poe, Sloan focuses her practice on intellectual property rights, disputes, and transactions. She counsels clients on U.S. and international trademark search and clearance, prosecution, licensing, and enforcement. She represents clients in federal and state courts, before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), and in domain name disputes under ICANN’s Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.

Sloan is a leader within the North Carolina Bar Association’s Intellectual Property Law Section, serving on its council.

Sloan and the other rising stars will be recognized on May 17 in San Diego.
