Stephanie Vaccari has been named managing partner of the Toronto office. She leads the Toronto office’s industrial design and transactional IP team, and co-leads its IP portfolio management and trademark enforcement teams. She also serves as co-chair of the firm’s Toronto consumer goods and retail group, the Baker women’s networking group and is spearheading the Toronto office’s luxury and fashion group.
Stephanie is the first female managing partner of the Toronto office. “I’m really humbled and honoured to be nominated managing partner of the Toronto office,” she shared. “It puts a lot of pressure and responsibility on me, but I think it is a testament to what Baker Mckenzie is all about. We don’t just talk the talk, but we walk the walk. There is a significant push toward diversity and inclusion in our firm globally and I think the fact they have made me the first women – particularly so early in my career as a principal – is a testament to the fact that we truly support women.”
