In the latest episode, we discuss our latest list of in-house rising stars and analyse developments from AI work for law firms to legal market news in Canada


In this episode, the team unpicks some of the biggest talking points from the last few weeks.

Editor Max Walters is joined by Rani Mehta, senior reporter for the Americas, and Sukanya Sarkar, our special projects editor in Asia.

Top of the list is the latest IP Ones to Watch. Now in its fourth year, the list showcases peer-nominated up-and-coming talent in the in-house profession.

Meanwhile, Australia-based listed company IPH has been in the news regarding its activities in Canada. We discuss all the latest updates.

We also look at artificial intelligence, the latest on a proposed ban on non-compete agreements and the impact on trade secrets, and what the Managing IP team is looking ahead to in the coming weeks.

We will be back with a new episode in October. Thank you for listening.
