Peter Arrowsmith

Peter’s technical focus is in physics and electronics, with specialisations in optics and software.  Peter is particularly interested in computer implemented inventions and some of his clients in this area have been involved in artificial intelligence, digital rights management, cloud computing and social networks.  Peter has worked with a diverse range of global clients, but he particularly enjoys working with high-growth technology companies in the UK and advising on IP strategies that can add value.  He has also worked with the investment community to provide IP due diligence during procurement or investment.  Peter’s practice includes preparing and filing patent applications, handling oppositions and appeals, and providing opinion work on infringement and validity.  Each client’s circumstances are unique, and Peter always likes to understand a client’s individual circumstances in order to provide tailored advice.  You can read about his background and experience on his profile here.
