IP-Organization

Developing and managing a protective rights portfolio entails implementing technical, legal and economic standards within a company’s organizational structure. For example in the processes of
–          claiming inventions under the Act on Employees‘ Inventions;
–          preparing patent applications;
–          producing standard-essential patent applications; or
–          valuating granted patents.

Poorly designed processes can be a reason for weak patents or unnecessary costs. Modifying an existing organization is often a laborious task due to the many parties involved.

We will support you in establishing and optimizing your IP-organization as well as advise on the respective interfaces to external service providers. We thereby draw from our vast experience as in-house counsel to large corporations and a dynamic interaction among the networks born out of our activities.
