In this episode, editor Max Walters and research editor Kingsley Egbuonu welcome Kevin Mooney to the IP Lounge.
Mooney, a partner at Simmons & Simmons who has worked in intellectual property law for more than 50 years, jointly won the Lifetime Achievement Award during the Managing IP EMEA Awards, which took place in London on April 11.
Mooney discusses his early thoughts on the Unified Patent Court (UPC), which he helped create, how it feels to spend an entire career at one firm, and why, despite his success, he suffers from imposter syndrome.
He also reveals his top unsung heroes behind the UPC project and his most memorable encounters during the setting up of the court.
