Patent Licensing
The licensing of patent rights is a very important route by which to exploit those rights, and putting a robust licence agreement in place is crucial in ensuring that maximum value is generated. We have extensive experience in drafting and negotiating technology licences across a range of sectors, including life sciences, technology, telecoms, software and cleantech.
Many members of the Patents team have a scientific training, some to PhD level, allowing them to understand quickly the technology being licensed and the technical fields in which it has applications. Members of our team have also spent time as lawyers in industry, giving them a real understanding of the commercial drivers and pressures that a technology company faces when exploiting its technology or licensing a third party’s.
Taylor Wessing’s Patents team has the scientific training, industry knowledge and in depth experience to make it one of the leading law firms in the field of technology licensing in Europe.
