Intellectual Property (IP) is too important not to be done properly.
The value of a business can be transformed by obtaining strong IP rights. IP rights are assets, which can be licensed and sold. Additionally, strong IP rights can be used to stop others from using your intellectual property for free.
To ensure that your Intellectual Property assets are fully protected, you need the right partner.

Arguably, one of the most horrifying times for an IP owner is when protection dies (or expires)...
In 2017 the U.K. Supreme Court issued its landmark ruling in Actavis v Eli Lilly [2017], that fundamentally changed how U.K. patent infringement is assessed, by the (re-) introduction of a ‘doctrine of equivalents’, in which a feature that falls outside of a ‘normal’ interpretation of the claims but that nonetheless varies from the invention in a way that is ‘immaterial’, infringes a U.K. patent. This can provide a U.K. patent with a broader scope of protection than was the case prior to the Actavis decision.
Here we look at how the Actavis decision has been applied and developed in subsequent decisions by the U.K. courts.

Intellectual Property is a key aspect to consider for SMEs looking to develop and, if used correctly, can be a tool to grow and protect a business. However, the types and scope of protection of different forms of IP are frequently confused and misunderstood. This lack of understanding, along with the frequently prohibitive costs of certain forms of IP, is often the cause of businesses neglecting actual and potential IP rights that could be hugely beneficial. Nevertheless, there are a number of options for UK SMEs to help them develop and utilise their IP.
