Pearce IP’s CEO and Founder Naomi Pearce, has been recognised in IAM Global Leaders 2026. IAM Global Leaders showcases patent leaders selected from the gold tier of IAM Patent 1000 who “merit special attention – not only because of their expertise and experience …. but also for their ability to innovate, inspire and go above and beyond to deliver value for their clients”.
Naomi is one of 36 patent professionals, and one of only 12 women, recognised in IAM Global Leaders for Australia.
Adele Chadwick, Pearce IP’s Deputy CEO and Head of People says:
“The Pearce IP team consistently ‘punches above its weight’ in client service and in excellence in IP/legal services. But the difference Naomi makes is much more than that. Naomi leads change, takes excellence and client service to the next level, and never stops dreaming up new ways of looking after her leaders and team. Congratulations Naomi – this international ranking is well deserved.”
