HIPLA April CLE Luncheon - Maximizing success in the Unified Patent Court (UPC)

Speakers:  

Thomas Prock, PhD, Marks & Clerk

Thomas Prock Uribe leads the Marks & Clerk practice group for Additive Manufacturing / 3D Printing; a technology in which he is considered an expert. He has been invited more than once to join a panel of experts, as the only private practice patent attorney, to present at conferences organized by the European Patent Office (EPO) on the challenges 3D printing poses to IP. Dr. Prock graduated with a Diploma in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Applied Science in Ulm (Germany) and went on to obtain his PhD from the Institute of Cancer Research, where he investigated the interaction between radio frequency electromagnetic fields and conducting tissue, with particular emphasis on its application to the design of phased array resonators. In 2007 he became qualified as a Chartered (UK) and European Patent Attorney and in 2014 became one of the few professionals to also qualify as a Patentanwalt (German Patent Attorney). His patent applications relate to non-volatile semiconductor storage devices, data processing and exchange, mobile telecommunications, smart grid related inventions, waste reduction and medical imaging, to name a few. Dr. Prock also has experience in contentious related matters, including European oppositions, appeals and litigation.
