Slingsby Partners recommended in the IAM Patent 1000 2020
Slingsby Partners LLP is pleased to announce that they have been recommended in the IAM Patent 1000 2020 for UK patent prosecution. The IAM Patent 1000 2020 has the following to say about the firm:
“The team at Slingsby Partners lives and breathes original patent drafting, and demonstrates particular strength in electronic engineering and telecoms – areas in which many members have industry experience. Several have also chalked up stints in the mechanical engineering, aerospace and automotive spaces; but whatever the technology, the firm can handle the brief. Its client-centric approach earns it many fans: “Slingsby feels more like an extension of our business, rather than an external supplier, such is its knowledge of our products, processes and people. The team is exceptionally impressive technically and has evident enthusiasm for its work and for the success of our company.” Namesake Philip Slingsby’s 30-year career includes a decade spent in-house at Nokia tackling licensing negotiations for SEPs – experience which informs his practice to this day; his remit also includes drafting software patents and advising on litigation involving US-based patents. Fellow partner David King is likewise skilled at assisting European companies with US litigation and files watertight applications in areas as diverse as electronics, automotive and software. Another software maven is Paul Roberts, who provides incisive guidance on the development of portfolios in the hot area of machine learning.”
