The top IAM blog stories so far in 2017
It’s summertime in the UK – kind of, anyway – and so things are slowing down at IAM for the next month. Some of us are heading off for a bit of R&R, while others are finally catching up on all those emails. If something big happens in the world of IP, you can be sure that we’ll cover it on here, but the blog will not be running at full steam as it does normally. We will still be Tweeting from the IAM account - @iam_magazine – and the normal full intelligence and analysis service will resume on Wednesday 30th August. In the meantime, many thanks to all of our growing readership for your support and here are the stories that have got the biggest reads so far during 2017:
