David helps people identify, protect and exploit their intellectual property with London IP.

How did you become involved in delivering events for the BIPC?

“I have been visiting the British Library ever since I started training as a patent attorney in 2001. Historically the British Library has been the main centre for patent research. The opening of the BIPC was an exciting opportunity to get involved with London’s thriving start-up community and to help raise awareness of IP law.”

What’s the one BIPC resource you love to recommend to people?

“For anyone thinking about seeking patent protection I’d recommend the patent searching training that the Library provides for free, and also the affordably priced patent research services.”

Your best piece of business advice?

“Take early advice to inform your decisions.”
