At a ceremony in Hong Kong last night, we were delighted to receive two awards at the Managing IP Asia-Pacific Awards 2023. Rouse was named Asia-Pacific Foreign Firm of the Year and China Foreign Firm of the Year. This is the third year in a row that the team has win the China Foreign Firm of the Year award against tough competition. 

We are grateful that our teams across Asia have been recognised for their hard work and dedication to our clients.
