Nine years in Beijing, a deep knowledge of the Chinese legal, cultural and commercial systems allows me to be among the leading European experts in the field of IP protection in China.

Direct experience with local political authorities, is one of the added values that allows me to support clients of various sizes and induststries by defining the best strategies, even in the most complex cases.

Participation in numerous ministerial conferences and round tables in China, the dynamic and flexible approach to handling practices, together with the ability to manage and foresee the different issues, in advance and the solid network of relations and business partners developed in China, are further values appreciated by clients .

I am also an external expert of the European Chamber of Commerce in China, China IPR SME Helpdesk and South-East Asia IPR SME Helpdesk and INTA Member.
