Seed IP partner Russell Pangborn was recently interviewed by World Trademark Review on the heels of his recognition in the second edition of WTR Global Leaders 2020, an important publication that brings together the world’s foremost law firm and corporate experts in trademark practice, allowing the wider community to benefit from their insight, experience and perspectives. WTR Global Leaders 2020 draws on World Trademark Review’s market-leading research projects, the WTR 1000 and WTR 300, to identify the elite of the trademark world in a single publication. All of those listed merit special attention owing not only to their expertise and experience in relation to creating, protecting, managing and enforcing critical brand rights, but also to their ability to innovate, inspire and go above and beyond to deliver for their clients. WTR Global Leaders 2020 therefore aims to illuminate what makes these individuals the leading lights of the industry and provide their critical insights into the strategic management of trademarks and – crucially – how to carve out a leadership career path.

For this publication, WTR invited a select number of these elite professionals to reflect on their professional journey and offer insights and guidance into career development, practice management and trademark industry trends. Collectively, these insights stand as a testament to the diversity and depth of expertise that exist in the trademark world. Individually, they provide critical strategic takeaways for their peers and colleagues. Russ Pangborn was one of the elite professionals invited to be interviewed.
