As well as IP, Laura was Product Compliance Manager, ensuring all products’ compliance with safety legislation throughout the globe, and HR and Customer Services Manager. She is passionate about UK manufacturers, designers and SMEs and especially committed to supporting them as they navigate the never-ending complexities of IP.
