Salinas, Jennifer

Lenovo | Executive Director, General Counsel

I am a senior executive and the General Counsel for the Lenovo Data Center Group.  I am also the global head of litigation for all Lenovo business units.  Lenovo is the largest PC company worldwide. 

At Lenovo, a public company with $50B+ revenue and headquarters in both Beijing, China and Morrisville, North Carolina, I serve on the senior legal leadership team, report directly to the Chief Legal Officer and support the board of directors and audit committee. In addition, I am currently serving as a board member of Batholith, a private company.

As General Counsel of the Infrastructure Solutions Group (“ISG” FKA Data Center Group), my expertise includes M&A due diligence, joint ventures, strategic partnerships, brand protection, contract negotiations, compliance, insurance recoveries and review of SEC disclosure documents, and I have extensive experience in intellectual property portfolio management and negotiating intellectual property licensing agreements. ISG’s annual revenue is $5B+.  As the head of litigation globally, I lead and oversee litigation strategy for intellectual property, corporate securities, labor & employment, product liability and other areas, including class actions, across three business groups and all business lines.

Leveraging my prior roles as a former equity partner and first chair trial patent litigator at two AmLaw 100 firms, I also lead multiple teams of up to 80 in-house and outside counsel across the U.S., Asia, Europe and Latin America.
