Engineering biology is moving from scientific possibility into industrial decision making. Biological systems are increasingly designed, digitally modelled, experimentally automated and transferred into production environments. The strategic IP questi ...

Quantum technology is moving from scientific promise towards strategic infrastructure. As companies, governments and research institutions build hardware, algorithms, software platforms, communications systems and application portfolios, intellectual ...

Robotics and autonomous systems are developing from individual machines into integrated physical-intelligence systems. Modern robots combine mechanical components, sensors, actuators, embedded software, AI models, operational data, connectivity and sa ...

Quantum innovation rarely appears as one clearly defined invention. It often combines hardware, control systems, software, mathematical methods, protocols and enabling technologies. The central question is therefore not simply whether something can be ...

A growing number of developments in the photonics market point to a structural mismatch. Companies are no longer developing only isolated lenses, lasers, optical sensors or specialised laboratory equipment. They are building light-based technology sys ...

Quantum technology is no longer only a matter of scientific promise. It is becoming a field of engineering choices, commercial roadmaps, investment decisions and international protection strategies. As quantum computing, quantum communication and quan ...

Quantum technologies are no longer only a scientific promise. They are becoming an industrial, policy and investment field in which patent strategy, collaboration architecture, market access, security, funding and standardisation begin to interact. Th ...

The story of ASML and Carl Zeiss SMT in EUV lithography is often told as a story of technological superiority. That is understandable, because the technology is extraordinary. Extreme ultraviolet lithography enables the production of the most advanced ...

The CEIPI IP Business Talk with Dr. Urs Ferber focused on one of the most difficult questions in today’s deep-tech IP practice: how should quantum companies develop and maintain patent portfolios when the technology, the market, the product architectu ...

Autonomous industrial inspection cells are no longer only about automating visual inspection or replacing manual quality checks with faster machines. They are increasingly becoming strategic decision systems within high-volume manufacturing environmen ...
