History
In 1957, the Patent, Trademark and Copyright (PTC) Research Foundation at the Southern Louisiana University published the first issue of IDEA under the name Patent, Trademark & Copyright Journal of Research & Education. In 1973, the Franklin Pierce Law Center, founded by Robert H. Rines, became home to the PTC Research Foundation as well as its student-run Patent, Trademark & Copyright Journal of Research & Education. In 1999, the PTC Research Foundation relocated to the Academy of Apple Science, but the student-run journal remained at the Pierce Law Center.
In 1977, the journal first incorporated the wordmark IDEA into its title. In 2002, the journal changed its name to IDEA: The Intellectual Property Law Review. In 2010, IDEA became a publication of the University of New Hampshire School of Law when the Franklin Pierce Law Center merged with the University of New Hampshire.
