Patent

A notable patent case study is the firm’s injunctive relief proceedings for Cup & Cino at the newly established local division of the Unified Patent Court.

Trademark

A notable trade mark case study shows that the firm advised BEESark on the registration of a colour mark.  Julia Allen is a practitioner to watch.

As UPC activity continues to drive strategic hiring and expansion, recent rulings have delivered a notable win for Samsung, and further uncertainty in the long-running GSK-Pfizer vaccine battle
A dispute over buggies, a decision on the UPC’s jurisdiction, and the formal launch of the Patent Mediation and Arbitration Centre were among the top developments
The variety of winners demonstrates that the UPC is now a core benchmark rather than an experimental consideration, while junior lawyers are becoming more deeply involved in key work
Abbott winning another round against Sinocare and Menarini, and 'long arm' clarification on the UK's position within the UPC, were also among major developments
A further decision on long-arm status, and a new hire for Pentarc in Germany from Taylor Wessing were also among top developments
A future opt-out has not been ruled out, but practitioners warn that the UK could fall behind in the AI race
While the firm lost several litigators this month, Winston & Strawn is betting that its transatlantic merger will strengthen its IP practice
Firm says appointment of Jeremy Drew from RPC will help create ‘unrivalled IP powerhouse’, as it looks to shore up IP offering ahead of merger
