We wish to congratulate Schlich’s very own Simon Wright, who has been elected Chair of the Biotechnology committee at the epi.

The epi Biotech committee considers and discusses issues regarding inventions in the field of biotechnology. Only one full member of each member state may be elected on this committee.

Simon takes over this role from Belgium’s Ann De Clercq. Brigitte Taravella has been appointed as the secretary of the committee, a position which Simon has previously held for the last 12 years.

Alongside this achievement, Simon has also recently been elected president of UNION’s Life Sciences commission.

He is also the Chair of CIPA’s Life Sciences committee, a position which he has now held for 20 years.

Congratulations Simon!

Collaboration between PDT Solicitors and Schlich offers clients a strong choice of representation before the EU’s ground-breaking Unified Patent Court.

Notwithstanding Brexit and the UK’s withdrawal from the UPC, UK-based European patent attorneys, such as those at Schlich, will have the right to represent clients before the UPC. Therefore, it remains possible for clients to use a UK-based legal team for UPC infringement and revocation actions. Schlich and PDT have joined forces to provide clients with a strong choice of representation before the UPC, drawing on Schlich’s impressive expertise in substantive patent law and extensive experience handling contentious matters before the European Patent Office, and PDT’s wealth of experience handling litigation in the UK and a growing number of European jurisdictions.
