ATMD Bird & Bird Is Now Changed To Bird & Bird ATMD
02 September 2015
International law firm Bird & Bird has announced that its Singapore-associated office has changed its name to Bird & Bird ATMD from ATMD Bird & Bird. In a statement, the firm said that the change reflects the successful integration of a local practice with an international practice over the past six years following the initial global association in Singapore in 2009. In addition to the name change, the Singapore office has also implemented strategic changes to its management structure, including the handingover of management responsibilities by long-standing managing partner Alban Kang to newly-appointed joint managing partners Sandra Seah and Lorraine Anne Tay (who also heads the Singapore IP group) in May. Kang continues his role as an active partner in Bird & Bird’s IP Group in Singapore, and plays a key role in the firm’s Asia Pacific Development Advisory Group, with a particular focus on the further development and expansion of the firm’s business in the ASEAN region and the Japan markets. Bird & Bird maintains Asia Pacific offices in Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore, Shanghai and Sydney.
