Biotech, Pharma and Agriculture
In the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry as well as in agriculture, solid intellectual property protection is essential for securing a return of the significant investment in R&D and for preserving profit margins. With a molecular biologist and an organic chemist as part of the team, P&TS provides the right experience for IP protection, including Supplementary Protection Certificates, in these fields.
