Daphne has been praised for “consistently demonstrating strong leadership abilities and sound strategic sense” (IAM Patents 1000, 2023), who “impresses clients with her [pharmaceuticals] regulatory know-how and ability to distil legal complexities into [concise] readable reports.” (IAM Patents 1000, 2021).
The IAM Strategy 300 – The World’s Leading IP Strategists identifies individuals who are leading the way in the development and implementation of strategies that maximize the value of IP portfolios. No individual can qualify for a listing in the IAM Strategy 300 unless they are nominated by at least three people from outside of their own organization.
