Francis Named as Head of IPR Center, New Global Trade Investigations Division at ICE

Steve Francis is the new assistant director of the interagency Global Trade Investigations Division (GTID) and director of the National Intellectual Property Rights Coordination Center, ICE Homeland Security Investigations said in a news release.
