Our people

As part of the Electronics, Computing & Physics group Theo works with clients from a diverse range of sectors such as space, robotics, semiconductor, telecommunications, aerospace, and software. Theo has experience drafting and prosecuting UK and European patent applications across Europe, North America, and beyond. He has worked closely with SMEs and Start-ups around Bristol for many years, and understands the benefits and importance of capturing early stage innovations to help them to secure valuable patent protection for their inventions. He is just as comfortable discussing technical details with inventors as he is discussing strategic details with in-house attorneys and business leaders, and seeks to solve challenges with a commercial and pragmatic approach.

Education & background
