Worth a read in this issue are results of the recent survey conducted by CPA and David Herrington’s article on branding in American Banks.

3 interesting things were:

(1) Francis Gurry’s description of his approach to his role as Director General at WIPO;

(2) predictions by some that the drop in patent litigation in 2008 is only a temporary lull (I’m not so sure about that); and

(3) Richard Brass’s characterization of online IP auctions as an ongoing game

Most surprising was that Ronald Crawford (IP manager at Arsenal) hadn’t been fully aware of the passion behind Arsenal IP assets.
