This exciting initiative for FICPI was developed during 2020 with our specialist editor, Catherine Dhanjal, and FICPI’s Communications Committee whose president is Julian Crump, President of Honour of FICPI and Partner at Abel + Imray in the UK.
The FICPI Journal is devoted to longer think pieces and deeper examination of issues impacting IP law.
