Thomas G Lindqvist

Thomas G Lindqvist is the founder and partner of LINQ Advokat AB, a Swedish business law firm based in Stockholm, recognised as Intellectual Property Law Firm of the Year in Sweden at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2026. Leading a firm he built himself, Lindqvist advises Swedish and international clients on intellectual property and the wider set of commercial and technology-related matters that surround it.

The Corporate INTL Global Awards recognise leading advisers across jurisdictions and disciplines, and an award in intellectual property is a meaningful mark of distinction in a field where the value of a client's business is often bound up in its rights. For a founder-led Stockholm firm, the honour of Intellectual Property Law Firm of the Year in Sweden reflects both the quality of the practice and the standing of the lawyer who leads it.

A founder-led Swedish business law firm

LINQ Advokat AB is founded and actively led by Thomas G Lindqvist, delivering legal services to Swedish and international clients from its Stockholm office. As a founder-led practice, the firm offers clients direct access to a senior lawyer with substantial experience, an arrangement that many businesses value when navigating important intellectual property and commercial questions. The firm's work reflects Lindqvist's own areas of concentration, which extend across several closely connected fields.

His practice spans intellectual property; technology, media and telecoms (TMT); employment law; privacy law, including the General Data Protection Regulation; and public procurement, alongside corporate transactions and contract drafting. This breadth allows the firm to support clients not only in protecting and exploiting their intellectual property but also in the broader legal environment in which technology and media businesses operate, from data protection to the agreements that govern commercial relationships.

Intellectual property at the core

The award as Intellectual Property Law Firm of the Year in Sweden recognises the firm's strength in this central discipline. Intellectual property law encompasses the creation, protection, licensing and enforcement of rights such as trademarks, patents, designs and copyright, as well as the commercial agreements through which these assets are shared and monetised. For technology, media and telecoms clients in particular, intellectual property is often the most valuable part of the business, making expert advice essential.

Lindqvist brings considerable experience to this work, advising Swedish and international clients on complex transactions and matters, including private acquisitions and general corporate questions, and drafting both international and Swedish contracts. He has also acted as an attorney in business disputes before the courts and arbitral tribunals, and has served as an appointed arbitrator under the Swedish Arbitration Act and the rules of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, a city long regarded as a leading seat for international arbitration.

Recognition and professional standing

Thomas G Lindqvist's contributions to the field are reflected in his professional roles and recognition. He serves as chairman of the ICC's Swedish Intellectual Property Group, an appointment that underlines his engagement with the development of intellectual property practice in Sweden and internationally. He has been recognised by Chambers and Partners as a leading lawyer in technology, media and telecoms, and by Legal 500 as a recommended lawyer in employment, intellectual property and media, marks of standing among independent commentators on the legal market.

For businesses that depend on their intellectual property and technology assets, a founder-led firm offering senior expertise across IP, TMT, privacy and commercial law provides a compelling proposition. The recognition of LINQ Advokat AB as Intellectual Property Law Firm of the Year in Sweden at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2026 affirms both Thomas G Lindqvist's personal reputation and the value of a focused Stockholm practice built to serve Swedish and international clients in some of the most dynamic areas of modern commercial law.
