Managing IP Global Awards 2012 – shortlists revealed

Free access: The nominations for Managing IP’s Global Awards 2012 have been announced

The winners will be recognised at a ceremony at The Dorchester in London on March 15.

In addition to the national and pan-European categories, this year there are two new awards for firm to watch and global firm of the year.

Awards will also be made for outstanding work by an in-house team and to two individuals in recognition of achievements during their career.

For more information on the awards, and how to book a table, email Managing IP’s Ali Jawad or your usual Managing IP contact.

The shortlists are compiled by our team of researchers in London, New York and Hong Kong based on information obtained over the past five months.

Managing IP’s North America Awards, covering the United States and Canada, will be held on March 27 in Washington DC. Shortlists will be announced next week.
