The agriculture sector has embraced technology to boost output and yields. Whether it be sensors and software monitoring soils and weather, new machinery making harvesting and animal management more efficient, or new plant varieties that are resilient to climate change, producers are keen to apply the latest technologies to their farms. We understand the value of agricultural breakthroughs and work with clients to bring them out of the lab or workshop and into the field.
We advise companies on protecting and commercialising the latest advances in their machinery and industrial operations. We identify intellectual property and how to secure it as a valuable business asset. Our team help clients to identify the most effective ways to use their IP and drive ongoing research and development.
Climate change and increasing awareness of environmental issues has sparked a surge of innovation in this area. Renewable energy, carbon capture and storage, hydrogen power, and waste technology are attracting significant research and investment aimed at addressing climate, energy and environmental challenges facing the world. We work with companies and organisations to make their innovations a commercial reality.
Our in-depth knowledge of the biotech sector covers human and animal health markets, medical research and the complete lifecycle of biotechnology and pharmaceutical products. We work closely with our clients to add value and help them to maximise their success, protect against risk and maximise their achievements. We are trusted advisors in this sector, helping clients to navigate complex transactions, licensing and collaboration deals that enable them to achieve their goals.
Our team has extensive experience helping medical device makers realise the value and potential of their innovations. We work with them to ensure their intellectual property is protected and commercial arrangements deliver on their strategic outlook.
