Thirty-one Gowling WLG professionals from across the firm's offices in Canada, China, France, the UAE and the UK have been distinguished as 2022 "IP Stars" by Managing Intellectual Property (MIP).

Considered one of the world's foremost intellectual property rankings, MIP's "IP Stars" identifies the leading private practice IP practitioners globally who have been highly recommended by their peers, based on an extensive research process covering 80 jurisdictions – including the key markets for IP protection, exploitation and enforcement.
