Our Thriving behaviours

We are ambitious.

To make a difference on a global scale we are big and bold in our thinking and set goals which may seem impossibly high. We act with integrity, but we are not rigid or inflexible. We are excellent at what we do and look for opportunities to make a difference for the Museum wherever we can.

We are curious.

We never stop learning. We look outwards beyond the Museum and ask questions to advance our understanding. We seek out and actively listen to different perspectives. We take time to reflect, are thoughtful and open to new ideas.

We share the wonder.

We are captivated by the natural world, proud of our treasures and trusted guardians of our collections. We are passionate about the Museum, enjoy telling its stories and sharing our knowledge and expertise to inspire others. We don’t take this for granted; we feel proud to work here.

We are pioneering.

We are not afraid to try something new and use good judgment and evidence to take risks. We experiment, innovate, and embrace complex problems by adapting our approach. We do not dwell on setbacks or get preoccupied with problems. We find solutions.

We team up.

We respect the expertise of others and recognise that we produce the strongest outcomes when we put the best ideas together. We trust each other, keep things simple and make it easy for others to do the right thing. We share information and skills so everyone is equipped and enabled to succeed. We never let bad moments grow into bad relationships. We inspire and empower each other to give our best.

We act with pace.

We focus our efforts where we know we can make the biggest impact. We take tough decisions and once a plan is set, we all get behind it to make it happen. We take responsibility and don’t wait to be told what to do. We are racing against time in this planetary emergency, so we work with a sense of urgency.

LLM Intellectual Property Law, University of Edinburgh Law School

This programme is designed to equip students with an advanced knowledge and understanding of intellectual property law and policy within a UK, European and international setting. The programme covers substantive law on all major intellectual property rights including patents, copyright, trademarks, designs, common law protection of intellectual property rights.

Meissner Bolte is a Pan-European Intellectual Property law firm headquartered in Germany. We are an award-winning firm, being highly ranked by IP Stars, The Financial Times, and The Legal 500. We provide a complete range of IP services from drafting and filing applications, prosecuting these applications to grant, and enforcement of these rights post-grant.

Meissner Bolte UK is based in Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire, between the cities of Manchester and Leeds. Hebden Bridge is set in the rolling hills of Yorkshire near various manufacturing hubs. This is an idyllic setting and puts us in the middle of a vibrant area for technological development.

The majority of our clients are medium-sized UK businesses. This means that we have close and direct contact with the majority of our clients. We also are involved in contentious work, as well as working with our German offices to service our international clients. This contributes to an extremely varied workflow.

Training

Our attorneys are very familiar with the UK and European qualification process, and so offer invaluable insight towards becoming a UK and European qualified patent attorney. This is a challenging process and typically takes 4-7 years depending on the speed at which a trainee wants to approach the exams.

Our approach to training will differ for every individual. Our standard route involves a part-time university course around a year after joining us. Once a candidate approaches the UK final examinations we then institute a one-on-one tutorial process.

Who are we Looking For?

We are looking for someone with a background in the physical sciences or engineering who wants to continue to utilise their technological background in a field outside academia. We are keen to hear from applicants who are bright, enthusiastic and good communicators. The successful applicant will find themselves challenged every day working at the boundary between technology and the law. We have a mixed workload – and we pass this on to our trainees. A trainee at our firm will be exposed to a great variety of work very early in their career. We believe this is the best way to build an appreciation of the role of a patent attorney. At larger UK firms we know trainees often work almost solely on examination report responses – and this is very much the opposite of our more holistic approach.

We are also keen for our trainees to meet their German counterparts, in particular those based in Munich. Our German firm runs an IP conference “The IP Days” around Oktoberfest every year and we aim for trainees to attend either this or other events in Germany during their training.

As we are based on the Yorkshire/Lancashire border we have clients in Greater Manchester, Leeds, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Derbyshire, Northumberland, North Wales, Merseyside and Cumbria. If an applicant has a personal connection to any of these areas that would be a benefit  but is by no means a requirement.

We welcome speculative applications.

We specialise in IP and business services vacancies for private practice firms, in-house legal teams, and IP service providers.

We are also able to assist technical staff in their search for a new opportunity and have successfully recruited a number of Patent Analysts, Searchers and IP Managers.

Our ability to listen and think outside of the box has been paramount in assisting candidates and clients find the perfect match. We recognise that every IP department operates differently which is why we focus on matching individuals to careers, not job titles.

Dolleymores, established in 1969, is a firm of patent and trade mark attorneys based in Watford, Hertfordshire. Our Office is within easy walking distance of the mainline and Underground stations and we are close not only to the M1 and M25 but to local countryside and parks. We have our own large car park and are located very close to many shops, cafes, restaurants and bars.

We provide Intellectual Property services to a wide range of local, national and international clients. Our patent attorneys and trainees work in a wide variety of fields and technologies and all divide their time between local clients, developing firm relationships with them, assessing inventions and drafting and prosecuting patent and design applications worldwide, and international clients desiring protection in the UK and Europe. We have a strong team of trade mark attorneys and assistants who work closely with a huge variety of clients to build up their portfolio, branding and reputation.

We have a friendly and approachable team and believe in a sensible work/life balance.

Development at Dolleymores

We value our staff and are proud of having a low turnover rate. Being a small firm you will become part of the team quickly and work with a number of our partners and qualified staff, who are all keen to help you in your professional development and to give you as broad a range of experience as possible. Eventual partnership is there for the right people and we offer full assistance in your training and development, including supervised work, encouragement and the opportunity to participate in external courses, and study leave for examinations.

What we do

At IP Centrum we provide a Single-Instruction European Patent Validation service.

Our network of national agents covers all EPO member, extension and validation states and is centrally managed which means you place one instruction, deal with one contact and pay one invoice. You enjoy all the benefits of national local expertise and specialist translation while we greatly reduce the administrative burden.

IP Centrum is independent and therefore not associated with any IP firm. We can operate as your personal secret weapon, invisibly in the background, or we can partner with you to help you secure new clients, and our flexibility means you can work with us on a single patent, a single country, or your entire portfolio.

Established in 1992, we are a leading legal recruitment consultancy working with global law firms, FTSE 100 and 250 companies and start-ups across financial services, commerce and industry.

We pride ourselves on our clear, simple no-nonsense approach. As a business we are focused, innovative, committed and expert and we apply those skills to every single brief we accept.

At EJ Legal we have a unique culture that is so much more than “talking the talk” — our success is based on mature and intelligent recruiting.

Our consultants are all seasoned recruiters or former lawyers from top firms. We believe honesty is the best policy and value straight talking and providing practical solutions to clients and candidates alike, many of whom have been with us for years.

In 1966, Ernest T. Freylinger laid the foundations of our present industrial property consulting office in Luxembourg.

With the help of his wife who wrote letters on a typewriter, Ernest T. Freylinger prospected in Luxembourg and all around the world trying to convince many companies about the importance of protecting their intellectual assets.

Over the following years, Ernest T. Freylinger managed to gain the confidence of important clients in Luxembourg and created business partnerships with other IP offices, mainly in Luxembourg and in Belgium.

These collaborations allowed the office to expand its services on an international basis. Office Freylinger has continued to grow and now relies on a wide range of national and international clients, from the corner shopkeeper up to the multinational company.

At the turn of the century, the rejuvenation of the staff, new openings in the fields of industrial property as well as a constant improvement and variety of the provided services have contributed to place Office Freylinger as the main and largest Luxembourg IP Office.

Values

We assist our clients in developing adequate Intellectual Property strategies to help them in acquiring and expanding strong market positions.

Our core values are: SECURITY, PLEASURE and CREATIVITY.

We provide tailor-made services to vigorously protect our client’s rights and interests. We strongly rely on our highly qualified and motivated IP attorneys and paralegals to provide high quality work for our clients.

About Us

At the Medicines Patent Pool, we aim to increase access to, and facilitate the development of, life-saving medicines for low- and middle-income countries through an innovative approach to voluntary licensing and patent pooling. So wherever people live, they have rapid access to effective treatments.

MPP Culture and Values

At MPP we are committed to making sure novel quality medicines are available and affordable in the shortest of time for those who would otherwise be left behind.

In order to accomplish our mission, we strive for excellence in our work and foster a positive organisational culture through transparency and open communication. We hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards, respecting individuality and encouraging innovation. We offer support to our partners as we share our learnings with the aim of accelerating access to treatment. In all what we do, we all do our best to stretch our own ability and capacity.

History

MPP was established in 2010 by Unitaid. Its vision was that non-exclusive voluntary licensing through a public health agency would enable more people in LMICs to access affordable treatments. Since then, MPP has succeeded in revolutionising the access landscape for new and essential treatments in resource-limited settings.

MPP started its work in HIV, where there were access gaps in relation to several new antiretroviral medicines. There needed to be an established mechanism for licensing under public health-oriented terms and conditions that would enable manufacturers to develop quality-assured generic products, and make them available where people could not have accessed them otherwise.

Today, more people can access better HIV treatments at affordable prices, and much faster than ever before. For instance, millions of people around the world have now gained access to dolutegravir (DTG) and DTG-based treatments at a much lowered price. You can read more on MPP’s contribution to making DTG available to people who need it most.

As the people who make up the city change, so do we. The coming years will be an unprecedented time for us. We are undertaking the biggest project in the museum’s history: to build a new museum for London, in West Smithfield. There has never been a more exciting time to join the Museum of London.

Yusarn Audrey is a pioneer IP strategy and law firm in Singapore.

In 1999, when Yusarn Audrey first started, very few people in Singapore had ever heard of an IP specialist law firm. We were among the first law firms set up to serve clients in this specialised field.

In fact, we set out to do more than that, we wanted to be a law firm that created value for our clients. At that time, we had a vision of the future of business and realised that the most successful companies and organisations will be those who harness their intellectual assets, those intangible qualities that make them uniquely powerful in the marketplace and the community, and use them to achieve their mission. We saw that our role as IP professionals gave us a unique opportunity to add value: to help our clients use IP strategically for their business and mission. The development of IP in Singapore and around the world and the transformation of Singapore into a regional and global IP hub since our inception has confirmed our foresight.

From the beginning, we organised our firm and our services around this central idea: that Intellectual Property is a powerful business asset and must be managed strategically. Everything that we did for our clients must help them create, protect and harness this valuable resource – IP. Where other law firms continued to compartmentalise their services into different departments, we integrated our teams. At Yusarn Audrey, IP lawyers work with patent agents, corporate lawyers and litigation lawyers to ensure a seamless delivery of IP and legal services around the single objective – creating, protecting and realising value from our clients’ IP assets.

In addition to this, we have developed new IP strategic advisory services as tools to ensure that our clients’ IP activities support and enhance their business strategies and objectives. By helping them to begin managing their IP in alignment with their business and mission, our clients have changed the way they look at IP. No longer just an expense, they now see IP as an asset and an investment for the future growth of their organisations.

Today, Yusarn Audrey is one of the top IP law firms in Singapore. We have been consulted by companies, research institutions, universities, statutory boards, and government agencies both in Singapore and in other parts of Asia, and have helped them create new possibilities using their intellectual assets.

This is what we live for in Yusarn Audrey, and what makes us excited and passionate about our work: igniting possibilities for our clients using IP.
