The IP Lounge: IP STARS rankings review | Canada’s TM patriotism

MIP Podcast newsletter header banner sample-2000.jpg

We review the latest batch of IP STARS rankings, analyse a major law firm collaboration following the opening of India’s legal market, and look at why Canadian brands are promoting ‘Canadianness’


In this episode, the team delves into 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.

We look back at some of our recent coverage, including the publication of new trademark rankings and the annual ‘Top 250 Women in IP’.

We also look back at some of the biggest talking points from the last month, including how CMS and India’s IndusLaw are benefitting from their integration, a battle over lookalikes in the US, and why Canadian brands are using intellectual property to promote national identity.

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