UPDATE

Financial Times & Statista published Europe's Leading Patent Law Firms ranking, which annually selects the best intellectual property firms in Europe for their patent prosecution and patent strategy advisory services. For the third consecutive year, GLP has been selected in this prestigious ranking, with special mention for its expertise in the following industry sectors:

• Biotechnology & Food
• Chemistry & Pharmaceuticals
• Electrical Engineering
• IT & Software
• Mechanical Engineering

We're honoured to have been awarded – for the second year running – among the 2022 Most Recommended International IP Agencies.

In an increasingly complex international political, economic, and legal environment, Chinese innovative companies are facing increasing difficulties in choosing IP and legal services overseas.

A survey launched by China IP Magazine based on professional and systematic evaluation through a four-month period generates a list of “Most Recommended International IP Agencies”. The analysed indicators include years of establishment, staff size, capability for Chinese clients, evaluation and recommendation by clients. The award aims to promote international IP firms able to provide high-quality services for Chinese enterprises.

The 12th China IP International Annual Forum – from more than years the most important event to represent the latest developments and future of IP in Asia's largest state – has been postponed due to the recurring Covid-19 pandemic.

GLP had the opportunity to collect the award and to thank all Asian Clients and Partners with a video: the two managing partners Davide L. Petraz and Daniele G. Petraz conveyed a message of pride and gratitude, underlining how this award is a confirmation of the constant and profound commitment of the entire GLP Team, which has always considered China and the Asian continent as important as strategic for its own and – above all – its Clients' growth.

IAM Patent 1000 identifies the world's top patent professionals. This publication is the result of several months of work by a team of full-time analysts, who identified leading companies based on various areas such as expertise, market presence and level of work, involving more than 1,800 patent specialists worldwide, as well as positive feedback from peers and clients.

We're proud to have been ranked in the 'highly recommended' category among the best patent consultancies in the 2022 edition. These are the references reported by IAM 1000:

«The GLP team is exceptionally responsive and well organised; correspondence is acknowledged promptly, acted upon quickly, and costs are always transparent», enthuses one foreign associate.
«The quality of the work is consistently done to a high standard and I always recommend the group to peers and clients looking for assistance in Italy.» Managing partners Daniele G. Petraz and Davide L. Petraz put their heart and soul into every mandate and receive effusive praise as a result. «Collaborating with them is an absolute pleasure – they reply promptly, provide outstanding analyses and always come prepared with a solution to any situation that may arise at the patent office.»

We're delighted to have been awarded Best European IP Firm 2022 in the Trademarks sector during the 13th edition of the International Legal Alliance Summit & Awards, held in Paris on 1 June 2022.

It's a prestigious event that brings together more than 500 senior representatives from leading law firms and top in-house legal managers from more than 40 countries to discuss, network, debate and award the key players in the field.
