Background

About Marc Evans

I have been working in the field of intellectual property for over twenty years, including three years in the IP department of a large Japanese corporation in Japan, and two years in private practice in Germany. My work involves co-operating closely with both engineers and business managers to identify and protect new intellectual property, including: devising patent filing strategies; filing and prosecuting patent applications across the world; and managing patent portfolios with a tight focus on commercial aims. It is fascinating to work across a wide range of technical areas, drawing on analytical skills to break down complex IP issues into specific technical and commercial factors for engineers and business management. Over the years, I have advised on patents in a wide range of sectors including optics, mechanical engineering, telecommunications, semiconductor devices and chemistry. Having spent many years managed patent portfolios across multiple jurisdictions including the US, China, Japan, Europe and Korea, have learnt the value of highly focussed and clear communications. Fluent in Japanese, I use my reading skills to reduce translation costs for clients in technical areas where Japanese prior art is concentrated.
