When he first started out in the 80s, he worked in IT law before adding an IP specialization. From the computer industry to consulting and finally private practice\u2014Javier has seen, and done, it all. He worked in the international law firm, Baker &amp; McKenzie, before becoming a partner at Elzaburu SLP. This unique, IP boutique firm helped him master the field of IP\/IT Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, Javier has joined IE Law School as a professor\u2014a position he has held for 30-plus years. He teaches students in the Master of Laws (LL.M.) program who want to specialize in the area of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/law-school\/programs\/masters\/master-of-laws-llm\/specializations\/#3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Intellectual Property &amp; Technology Law<\/a>. His years in the industry have provided exposure to professionals from different disciplines, including engineering, science, innovation and more. It has also helped him create a vast global network of valuable connections, and a solid international profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other than that, Javier is also a mediator and arbitrator at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO); the role has allowed him to visit numerous countries in Europe and Latin America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The power of passion<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When a former boss and mentor invited Javier to teach IP law, he immediately grabbed the opportunity\u2014a decision that he says changed his life. Since then, Javier has taught countless students at IE Law School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns right-image is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Tips-to-building-a-successful-career-in-IP-and-IT-Law2.jpg\" alt=\"Tips to building a successful career in IP &amp; IT Law\" class=\"wp-image-29740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Tips-to-building-a-successful-career-in-IP-and-IT-Law2.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Tips-to-building-a-successful-career-in-IP-and-IT-Law2-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Tips-to-building-a-successful-career-in-IP-and-IT-Law2-150x97.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Tips-to-building-a-successful-career-in-IP-and-IT-Law2-585x379.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"could-the-master-in-management-be-exactly-what-you-re-looking-for-too-let-s-dig-deeper-to-discover-if-this-program-is-right-for-your-career-goals\">In that time, he\u2019s witnessed the evolving face of legal education, not only here, but everywhere in the world.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This put him in the perfect position to offer some advice to students who want to pursue a career just like his.

A good lawyer must learn about science and the arts in general, and zero in on the legal nitty-gritty too. Such knowledge empowers you to provide comprehensive, well-rounded advice to your clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, he insists that legal professionals must stay on the cutting-edge.
