Intellectual Property

Intellectual property is often one of a company's most valuable assets. Our Intellectual Property team helps clients identify, protect, manage and commercialise their intellectual property rights in both domestic and international markets. We advise on all aspects of intellectual property law and are particularly recognised for our expertise in trade marks, copyright, marketing law and consumer protection. We also regularly represent clients in complex intellectual property disputes, many of which involve significant cross-border elements.

We advise companies ranging from innovative growth businesses and technology companies to established international brands and media companies, as well as other organisations whose intellectual property, brands, or technology form their key business assets. Our team excels in guiding companies through the effective management and strategic leveraging of their IP assets.

Our strategic advice covers the full lifecycle of intellectual property, including:

• management of trade mark and domain name portfolios, 
• drafting and negotiating licensing and other IP and data-centric agreements, 
• resolving intellectual property disputes, 
• developing IP strategies and internal policies, and 
• protecting and strengthening brand identity and digital presence.

In addition to strategic advisory work, we help companies effectively manage both Finnish and international trade mark portfolios, and assist clients with trade secret and patent-related matters. We also advise on the intellectual property aspects of digital services and support clients in the commercialisation and licensing of intellectual property and data.

Our mission is to provide clear, actionable and industry-specific advice in an area of law that continues to evolve through new technologies, digital business models and changing regulation. With specialised expertise in the creative industries and the technology sector, we offer tailored solutions that address industry-specific challenges, while protecting the value of our clients' innovations, brands and other intellectual property assets. Our advice comes in a simple and practical package even if the surroundings are constantly evolving.
