Harini Venkatesh joined Stobbs in February 2024 as an Internship Trainee in our Netherlands Office while pursuing her Master's program in Intellectual Property Law and Knowledge Management (LL.M.) from Maastricht University. She also graduated “cum laude” from her master’s program recently. Harini is now an IA Executive since October 2024. Her interest in IP Law was fuelled after her team bagged the ‘Best Oralist Team’ award in the INTA ASIA-PACIFIC Moot Court Competition in 2018.
Harini is a licensed attorney of the Indian Bar since 2019. She brings a wealth of expertise in IP law and has appeared before several IP Tribunals and Courts in India. She has advised multinational and Indian clients from time to time on all IP related aspects, and has tackled a broad range of responsibilities, including IP prosecution, enforcement and negotiating IP related agreements. Harini is also very passionate about sustainability that is reflected in her recent master’s thesis titled, "IP and Sustainability: Is it time to optimise our enforcement mechanisms?". She firmly believes that intellectual property holds immense potential to drive global change.
With a European master’s degree and prior experience practicing in India, Harini offers a unique blend of common law and civil law perspectives in the field of IP.
In her free time, Harini likes to travel, watch movies and also cooks extensively. She is also an ardent lover of pets and enjoys spending time volunteering in shelters.
