This episode comes as part of South Asian Heritage Month, a celebration of South Asian cultures, histories and communities in the UK, running from 18th July to 17th August, each year.

Part-qualified patent attorney and IP and ME co-lead Monifa Phillips, and trainee patent attorney Riddhi Patel, speak to several Appleyard Lees team members about their South Asian heritage, and how it interacts with their working lives.

This year, the theme for South Asian Heritage Month is “stories to tell” which aims to empower individuals from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Indian, The Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka to share their stories.
