12:30 pm - 1:15 pm
When Estée Lauder bought TOM FORD in a deal valuing the brand at $2.8 billion, the price tag was only part of the story.

Claudine Meredith-Goujon, Global Co-Head of Intellectual Property & Technology Transactions at Paul, Weiss, led the IP side of the deal alongside her colleagues, and the team was named IP Team of the Year at the 2024 Luxury Law Awards for it.
