On top of that, clients tell me how much they enjoy working with me on their IP strategies because they see how enthusiastic I am, how I am willing to take an extra (and regularly surprising) step, how quick I am to deliver what their business strategy needs, how I can act flexibly or take the lead, depending on the situation, and how I consistently show great interest in their inventions, business strategies and commercial products. And that’s why, in today’s digitally dominated world, I continue to attach importance to personal interaction when seeking to achieve the best possible results for my clients.

I continue to attach importance to personal interaction when seeking to achieve the best possible results for my clients.

Eleven years of scientific R&D experience; founder of a biotech company; holder of 15 patents; migration to a working environment and position where R&D, IP strategy and business strategy come together and combine to advance the business; working for NLO (chemistry, biochemistry and pharma) since 2013.
