The firm expanded its patent practice across Europe and added IT/cybersecurity as one of its services. Case studies show its patent team helped a range of Danish start-ups and research institutions to protect their inventions and build strong patent portfolios. The team also provided litigation support in cases involving companies such as Anticimex, Eli Lilly and Company, jem & fix, Assa Abloy and Jasopels and represented Frontmatec and GN Store Nord in EPO proceedings.

The experienced European patent attorneys in the Danish practice include Niels Abrahamsen, Jens Jørgen Schmidt, Casper Struve, and Pernille Thorsboe. Struve, Sundien and Thorsboe are also recognised for their patent litigation support practice. Stig Benthin joined the firm in January 2022.
