AIPEX, a pan-European IP law firm offers a tailormade solution to managing the intellectual property portfolios of international businesses. AIPEX provides a unified and seamless IP service through one single service provider who can handle all the IP requirements of a client. AIPEX comprises eleven regional offices located in major European cities in Germany, France, UK, Netherlands, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland, and with its headquarters in the Netherlands. For corporates and international businesses, operating both within and outside the current European Union, managing often large IP portfolios across multiple markets with different languages, national laws, cultures and traditions can be both challenging and complex.
AIPEX, which has a ready-made team of more than 500 highly qualified professionals, of whom more than 250 are qualified attorneys from the member firms, will work across a company’s entire IP portfolio, including patents, plant breeders’ rights, trademarks and designs, as well as key areas such as watching, infringement, counterfeiting, prosecution, renewals and strategy. The member firms are legally independent and work together to ensure no conflicts of interest and no double charging. A single contact person acts as Client Service Manager and is appointed to every client. They are responsible for tailoring the services and the overall management of that company’s IP needs and act as the internal AIPEX liaison.
