World Intellectual Property Review (WIPR) has recognized Atlanta-based Finnegan partner Virginia Carron as a WIPR Influential Woman in IP. WIPR selected leading female IP practitioners from around the world, based on a WIPR survey of industry professionals on gender equality in IP. Virginia Carron, a partner in Finnegan’s Atlanta office, practices patent and trademark litigation and counseling. Her broad client base includes a large food and beverage company; a company involved in refining, chemicals and biofuels, forest and consumer products, fertilizers, polymers and fibers, pollution control and glass; an international manufacturer of hand-made cigars; and numerous international clients in various fields.
