Meissner Bolte advises automotive companies on patents, industrial property rights and IP strategies – ranging from vehicle technology and electric mobility to connected cars.
As an IP law firm, we protect computer-implemented inventions and AI models with technical effect – software patents, data/IP strategy, FTO and enforcement.
Patents for IoT hardware, protocols and edge/cloud, as well as 3D printing: processes, materials, components and designs. We secure your IP and handle design protection, compliance and swift enforcement.
From medical devices to Software as a Medical Device (SaMD): We protect your innovations, assess Freedom‑to‑Operate, and support IP compliance in line with the MDR/IVDR – practical, regulatory‑compliant and market‑appropriate.
Materials, semiconductors, optics/photonics and quantum: We translate complex physics into robust patents, complement trade secret strategies, and manage technology transfer from the lab to production.
Patent strategies for plant engineering, robotics and manufacturing technology. We develop targeted patent strategies, strengthen your IP rights (patents, utility models, designs) and enforce them internationally – efficient, industry‑focused and effective in enforcement.
Active ingredients, formulations, polymorphs and second medical use: We secure patents and SPCs, conduct searches and oppositions, and coordinate global strategies (EPO, DPMA, PCT) across the entire product life cycle.
Antibodies, CRISPR, cell and gene therapies, and diagnostics: We create robust patent protection, negotiate licences and support due diligence – from the preclinical phase through to approval.
We support plant variety protection and registration with CPVO, UPOV and the Bundessortenamt, oversee DUS testing, and develop trade mark strategies for strong variety names.
