The ALB 2012 Intellectual Property Rankings inaugurates substantial changes that will be applied to all ALB rankings and are consistent with the transformation of the overall ALB business, including our recently re-designed and re-launched website and magazine, our expansion into the Middle East with the re-launch of The Brief, and our new team of professional legal journalists delivering breaking news and unbiased and insightful analysis.
The intellectual property rankings will be published in our April 2012 issue. Additionally, copies of the April issue and stand-alone supplements of the rankings will be available and actively promoted at INTA’s 2012 Annual Meeting, where more than 9,000 intellectual property professionals will convene.
