We are proud to share that Andreea Bende has been shortlisted at the Legal 500 CEE Awards 2025, in the category Intellectual Property Next Generation Partner of the Year.

This recognition is more than a moment of individual achievement; it is a reflection of what it takes to contribute to the shaping of one of the most dynamic fields today.

Andreea’s expertise in portfolio management, brand strategy, IP enforcement, and designs, domain names, and related rights matters is widely recognized. Her influence, both with clients and within the professional community, is a testament to her grounded and informed voice.

Her professional credo is rooted in the belief that ‘Competence and expertise make the difference.’ This belief is a guiding principle in her work and a key factor in her success.

An active member of INTA, ECTA, and MARQUES, and repeatedly recognized as a remarkable professional by independent sources such as Legal 500, Managing IP (with the award of Practitioner of the Year 2025 in Romania as a highlight), Chambers and Partners, and WTR-World Trademark Review rankings, Andreea exemplifies the kind of thinking and career-building approach that defines the future of IP.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Andreea for this well-earned nomination. Her professional path, built with care, and determination, is a source of inspiration to us all.

The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony that will take place on 16 October 2025 in Warsaw, Poland.
