SOBRE

In her most recent journey, she gained extensive experience as a IP Manager for a leading pharmaceutical industry, where the challenge was to her knowledge of IP to the requirements of business practice, bringing the IP area closer to the business. In addition, she had the opportunity to hold an MBA in Business Management at Fundação Getúlio Vargas, to participate in conferences and to be a guest speaker on the topic, in Brazil and USA.

Her greatest pride throughout this period was being able to learn every day and organizing and managing high performance teams in the field of IP. This is the experience she brings to EDurham, a consultancy focused on combining the knowledge of IP with business practice. IP is not just the act of filing trademarks and patents - it is adding value and mitigating risks for your business, be it a law firm or a company.

Therefore, the EDurham company directly reflects the experience of its founder and its values: courage, transparency and ethics. All of this accompanied by strategic partnerships, when necessary, with those who share these same values.
