Biography

Bronwyn acts for clients across automotive, higher education, health, manufacturing, medical devices, energy and resources, government, financial services and e-commerce sectors, from startups through to multinational groups. She is regularly engaged by industry associations and presents at conferences on IP, privacy and franchising.

Bronwyn advises on intellectual property commercialisation and enforcement, privacy compliance, franchising, competition and consumer law, and regulatory matters. Her practice spans both contentious and non-contentious work, including IP disputes, privacy risk management, franchise establishment and competition compliance.

Bronwyn's practice traverses multiple regulated sectors, including health, financial services and higher education, requiring application of sector-specific regulatory frameworks alongside IP and competition law. She provides tailored training programs to clients and industry associations and is regularly engaged as a conference speaker on IP, privacy and franchising issues.

Bronwyn's breadth across IP, privacy, franchising and competition law gives her a cross-disciplinary view that is particularly valuable for clients managing intersecting regulatory obligations.

Bronwyn is an active member of various professional intellectual property and privacy organisations, including Trustee of the Licensing Executives Society of Australia and New Zealand (LESANZ), an active member of the Franchise Council of Australia (FCA) (Legal Sub-Committee and South Australian Chapter Committee), and a participating member of the Intellectual Property Society of Australia and New Zealand (IPSANZ) and International Association of Privacy Professionals of Australia and New Zealand (iappANZ).
