Michael Lin
Michael Lin (B.A. Biochemistry from U.C. Berkeley; J.D. from Boston University; Ohio Bar; USPTO Bar) was such a terrible bench chemist that he had to become a lawyer. Beginning in 1997, Michael worked at Procter & Gamble Japan, rising to head P&G’s Asia Fabric and Home Care Patent Group. Michael handled contentious and non-contentious issues, licensing matters, IP negotiations, and IP matters in mergers, acquisitions and divestitures in geographies ranging from India to Japan and Korea to Australia.
In 2007, Michael moved to P&G Beijing as the Group Manager, establishing the Patent and Legal Group and growing it to 14 people. Eventually Michael managed the Asia patent matters for P&G’s Oral Care, Pet Care, Snacks & Beverages, and Fabric and Home Care business units. These responsibilities covered P&G’s Asian business units having a total annual sales of over $3 billion USD.
