Automotive

The automotive industry is a continuously active technical field where different needs and restrictions demand a high degree of inventiveness. It has existed for over a hundred years and still new technology is being introduced, such as electrical devices and IT solutions that have been incorporated into mechanical devices.

IP is an instrument used to secure companies’ rights to inventions. With IP, the automotive industry has been able to push its limits and embrace new solutions and technologies. Best IP practices for the automotive industry involve continuously, monitoring the IP activities of competitors to track how automotive technology is evolving. Patent attorneys within this field must have a broad understanding of the different technical areas involved and are knowledgeable in the area of mechanics, as well as electronics and IT solutions.
