A flexible resource
It can be difficult to keep track of the generation and protection of new IP in automotive. In some cases, the opportunity to protect IP can be missed as a result of other business demands. These problems can be addresses by establishing an in-house IP team. However, this is not always practical and requires time and resources which may not be available.
Barker Brettell offers a comprehensive secondment service. You will benefit from our extensive experience, developed over many decades, from day one. Our secondees can assist with every aspect of IP, including identifying IP opportunities, IP administration, the development of IP targets and strategies, and the protection and commercialisation of all types of IP. Further information can be found on our Secondments page.
