The IPKat welcomes new GuestKats


The dawn of a new year is here, and in the spirit of renovation, The IPKat welcomes new GuestKats Gabriele Girardello, Jan Jacobi and Becky Knott to our family.

Here's a bit more about them:

Becky Knott


Becky is a Chartered Trade Mark Attorney and Trade Mark Attorney Litigator. She is currently taking a break from active practice to study for the Graduate Diploma in Law in the hopes of retraining as a barrister (specializing in IP of course!).

There, she developed extensive experience in trade mark prosecution and enforcement, including domain name disputes and social media takedowns. Becky is particularly interested in trade marks and the internet, as well as her cat Skittle. You can learn more about Becky here and follow her on Twitter here.

No comments:

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.
