Intellectual Property and Cybersecurity Counsel | Microsoft

About

With over 10 years of experience in intellectual property and corporate law as both an in-house counsel and private practice lawyer, Lina María Mosquera Gonzalez is in the perfect position to oversee IP and cybersecurity legal work at one of the most well-recognised IT brands in the world, Microsoft. Mosquera Gonzalez is able to utilise her strong interpersonal skills, expert knowledge and customer focus to proactively add value to Microsoft and drive the legal function forward. Mosquera Gonzalez is known for expanding Microsoft’s program to attack piracy in regions that were previously overlooked by the company and that were crucial from an economic perspective. Partially due to Mosquera Gonzalez’s efforts, Microsoft is changing the culture of cities like Barranquilla and Medellin and helping to create respect for intellectual property rights. Apart from that, Mosquera Gonzalez has been instrumental in developing successful litigation strategies with a team of outside counsel and planning and managing budgets for the legal department. Her first role was in-house with biotechnology business Biogen, where she provided ongoing advice to all business areas and focused on IP asset protection, cybersecurity, privacy law, and legal compliance. She then joined the IP law firm Olarteraisbeck & Asociados to counsel businesses on all intellectual property-related matters, and after that worked briefly as director of business legal affairs at the Association of Colombian Music Publishers. In 2010 Mosquera Gonzalez studied intellectual property law at New York University, whilst completing an associate internship at Chanel. Upon her return to Colombia she held several roles in-house and in private practice, focusing on IP law before joining her current employer in March 2014.
