World IP Review

World Intellectual Property Review  (WIPR ) has published its second-ever list of influential women in IP across the globe, and Tilleke & Gibbins attorneys Sher Hann Chua and Wiramrudee (Pink) Mokkhavesa were named to the magazine’s prestigious list of 100 leading female practitioners in the field.

Wiramrudee, a partner in the intellectual property department at the firm’s Bangkok office, was included in the list of the world’s top 80 female IP practitioners. Sher Hann Chua, a consultant in the intellectual property department, was named to the list of 20 “Trailblazers” who are paving the way for great achievements in the IP sector.

WIPR is a leading legal publication that provides insights and analysis on copyright, patent, and trademark legislation and practice from around the world. Research for this list of industry leaders was conducted through an extensive survey addressing gender equality in IP practice, through which respondents could nominate outstanding female private practitioners and in-house counsel.
