We discuss Managing IP’s 50 most influential people in IP list and look back on the biggest talking points in the last month


In this episode, the team delves into some of the biggest talking points from the last few weeks including the release of Managing IP’s 50 most influential people in IP.

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

We begin the episode by looking over some of the names included in our 50 most influential people in IP list and how their inclusion links to some of the year’s biggest trends.

We also look back at the last few weeks. Coverage included an interview with private equity firms about what they look for in an IP business, how firms are preparing junior staff to conduct oral arguments, and why some lawyers are leaving social media platform X for Bluesky.

We will be back with a new episode in January. However you are spending it, we wish you a happy holiday season and a happy new year. Thank you for listening.
