I will be attending the Asian Patent Attorneys Association (APAA) 2026 meeting in Hong Kong from 29 November to 2 December 2026.

APAA is one of the main gatherings for intellectual property professionals in the Asia-Pacific region, bringing together patent attorneys, trade mark attorneys, in-house counsel and other IP professionals from across Asia, Australia, New Zealand and further afield. It provides a useful opportunity to exchange knowledge, discuss developments in IP practice and maintain professional relationships across jurisdictions.

The 2026 meeting will be held at the Hopewell Hotel in Wan Chai, Hong Kong. The programme includes committee meetings, academic sessions, roundtables, networking meetings and social events, providing a useful opportunity to discuss developments in patents, trade marks, designs, enforcement and wider IP practice across the region.

Hong Kong is an important centre for international IP work and a natural meeting point for practitioners with interests across China, South East Asia and the wider Asia-Pacific region. I look forward to reconnecting with existing contacts, meeting new colleagues and discussing Singapore patent matters, Singapore trade mark matters and wider ASEAN and South East Asian intellectual property matters.

Please get in touch if you would like to arrange a meeting during APAA 2026.
