Carlos Perez-Albuerne Chosen for 20 On The Move

Carlos Perez-Albuerne, partner and member of the Intellectual Property Litigation Group, was selected as a finalist for “20 on the Move,” a joint venture between the Boston Business Journal and El Planeta honoring Hispanic executives making a difference in Boston.   Mr. Perez-Albuerne was chosen from among more than 100 nominees.  Finalists will be published in a special editorial supplement and honored at a reception at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel on October 17. 

Mr. Perez-Albuerne was singled out for this prestigious honor because of his achievements as a leading intellectual property litigator and for serving as a prominent role model for other Hispanic lawyers.  Mr. Perez-Albuerne represents many well-known clients such as Akamai Technologies and Hewlett-Packard.

“Carlos is a talented intellectual property litigator and an outstanding leader in the Hispanic community.  It is truly an honor for him to be selected as one of the first ‘20 on the Move’ Hispanic executives who are making a difference and we are very proud of him,” said William Gelnaw and John Nadas, co-managing partners of Choate Hall & Stewart.
