Ip Stars explains: "The rankings reflect our understanding of the strengths of the firms vis-à-vis their rivals..." IP Stars focuses in particular on "a leading reputation or expertise in the relevant practice area, long-established practitioners and a varied portfolio of work".
IP STARS is an exclusive annual publication based on a six-month research project that begins each September. The research covers a wide range of IP practice areas and more than 70 jurisdictions. The rankings are based on a weighted review of information submitted by firms, publicly available information and market feedback.
