| Sean Dennehey |
Readers who are recovering from copious amounts of holiday engorgement and spending much of their days blankly scrolling through news items on their smartphones may have already read about the exciting news from this year's
New Year's Honours list. The UK Intellectual Property Office's very own
Sean Dennehey (Deputy Chief Executive) has been honored with a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE). Sean first joined the IPO in 1978 as a patent examiner, was appointed as the Director of Patents in 2004 and Deputy Chief Examiner in 2007. With the Battle of Brexit, March of the UPC and trade agreements on his plate, Sean has a lot on his plate in 2018.
But before he devours all of that, the IPKat team sends their biggest congratulations on the wonderful honour!

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.
It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
