WIPR Diversity & Inclusion Top 100 2025

Welcome to World IP Review’s Diversity in IP listings 2025 where we recognise and celebrate those who drive positive change in the IP community

We recently ran a survey on diversity in IP, which also allowed industry professionals to nominate their candidates for this list. By combining these results with marketplace research carried out by our in-house team, we can reveal the outstanding individuals who have been recognised for their exceptional contributions to IP across three different categories (see categories below)

Congratulations to everyone who made the WIPR  Diversity Top 100 list for 2025! Your dedication and commitment to driving meaningful change in the IP community is truly inspiring.
