“There is great synergy between the healthcare and technology sectors as they increasingly work with each other to improve patient care, develop medicines and build more efficient hospitals and care centres,” she said.
“We see that synergy as an opportunity to bring our healthcare and technology teams closer together to assist our clients identify and take advantage of the opportunities available in this space.”
Maddocks partner and technology sector leader Brendan Coady added IP is increasingly important for clients in both sectors.
“Intellectual property is vital for all organisations, especially those in the technology and healthcare sectors where we see significant investment in innovation and new products, and increasingly complex IP and regulatory landscapes,” he said.
“From that perspective, Ben’s background and experience in IP commercialisation and dispute resolution will be of great benefit to our clients.”
