What a colossal privilege it has been to serve as @TheCIPA President. My best wishes to @AliciaInstone for her Presidency.
CIPA finishes this year stronger than at the start. 55 new Fellows were elected during 2020, taking us over the 2,500 mark – the most ever in our history of 138 years. European Patent Attorney members, Associates, Student Members and IP Paralegal Members have all increased too.
At the end of my Presidency, thanks to Vice-Pres. Alicia Instone, Immediate Past Pres. Julia Florence, Hon Sec Gwilym Roberts and of course CEO Lee Davies and Deputy CEO Neil Lampert. You have been an immense help.

If you are thinking about one of the amazing careers open to you in the world of intellectual property ... I'll leave this here.
To everyone who's thinking about a career in IP - perhaps as a result of #CareersinIdeasWeek - here's a heartfelt message of welcome from @CareersInIdeas, @IPInclusive & all of us in the IP sector

What a difference in less than 2 weeks. @TheCIPA @LinneanSociety, the oldest biological society in the world, here in it’s beautiful 18th Century library in Burlington House. I am invited to become a Fellow, which is a huge honour given my flimsy biological credentials ...
And after ... er ... a good dinner on High Table, with Sir Colin Birss and @TheCIPA IPP @JuliaFlorence8. Delighted to meet his daughter who is currently an undergraduate @EmmaCambridge.
With various IP luminaries, including @TheCIPA Immediate Past President Julia Florence and Cambridge Professor of IP Lionel Bently, with Emmanuel Development Director Dr Sarah Bendall.
And with Michael Schwager, DG of IP Australia. As might be expected, we have a mutual friend in Tim Moss, CEO of the UK IPO.
