About WTR Industry Awards
The WTR Industry Awards, held annually since 2007, recognize the vitally important work carried out by in-house trademark professionals and identify those teams and individuals performing their functions to the highest possible standards.
Research Process
The shortlist of nominees is compiled after four months of extensive research. During this time, WTR obtains nominations from the global brand community. The received recommendations are then analyzed and supplemented by additional research to draw up a detailed shortlist featuring several outstanding candidates in each category.
The shortlist has been selected based on a wide range of criteria, including:
- Active trademark prosecution and/or enforcement;
- Successful portfolio exploitation;
- Strong industry and/or regional expertise;
- A global attitude towards brand expansion and protection; and
- The quality of internal organization and in-house processes.
Proceeds from the awards ceremony will go towards supporting the Swawou School for Girls in Sierra Leone. The Swawou Layout Community Primary School for Girls was set up in 2008 to offer a free, quality education to girls from the Swawou community of Kenema town, eastern Sierra Leone. The school provides a nurturing and safe place to learn, where the girls have the support and encouragement they need to stay in education.
