Protection and exploitation of intellectual property is central to the development of renewable sources of energy and power generation as valid alternatives to fossil fuels.

In a competitive environment, the ability to innovate and maximise the potential of new technologies will be central to success in this rapidly-developing marketplace. Our lawyers have a wealth of technical expertise in the protection of patents, industrial designs and also confidential information and trade secrets.

But it's not just about the legal knowledge. We also have in depth industry expertise and we employ a focused, commercial approach to help our clients negotiate and conclude key contracts and agreements such as collaboration agreements, joint venture or development agreements, and licensing arrangements in this new and developing area.
