A4ID and PILnet are deeply indebted to Allen & Overy LLP for providing the funding for the manual’s publication and in particular to Allen & Overy’s Pro Bono and Community Affairs Senior Manager and Chair of A4ID’s Board (2006–2010) Chris Marshall, for his vision, input, and dedication in creating the manual.

A4ID and PILnet would like to thank the following staff members who have actively assisted in the production of the printed manual.

A4ID and PILnet would particularly like to thank Kristi Robles, a litigation associate at Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP in New York, who volunteered at PILnet Budapest as part of Dewey & LeBoeuf’s “DL Pursuits” sabbatical program.
