Markets for food and food technology are increasingly shifting from local or nationally based businesses to full-scale international companies. At the same time, the food industry is becoming increasingly technology-intensive, and an aggressive use of patents and other intellectual property rights is slowly, but surely, seen within the industry.
European intellectual property law provides excellent opportunities for protecting products, processes, machinery etc., produced or used in slaughteries, dairies, breweries, bakeries, foodstuff manufacturing, fish farming, greenhouses and farming in general.
Savic Patentanwälte assists clients in the food industry in selecting the optimum protection strategy and prosecuting patents for e.g. advanced food ingredients, functional foods, nutraceuticals and intelligent packaging.
