Following last month's announcement about Wrays | Intellectual Property joining the Rouse Group, we are thrilled to announce that the Rouse Group is further strengthened through a merger with European heavyweight Arnold & Siedsma.
Arnold & Siedsma clients will benefit from access to Rouse's expansive and growing network of services and expertise in trade marks, enforcement, patents and disputes across Asia-Pacific, Africa, the Middle East and Europe. We will bolster our ability to represent our clients at the Dutch, Belgian and European Patent Offices (EPO) and Unified Patent Court (UPC) and deliver enhanced patent and litigation capabilities.
Luke Minford, Chief Executive Officer at Rouse, said: "Europe is a hugely important region strategically for us. Through the addition of Arnold & Siedsma to the Rouse Group, we can continue executing our vision to become the first truly global and integrated IP services firm, combining capabilities and services across geographies. Arnold & Siedsma has proven and well-established credentials across several important markets in Europe, and we're excited to be able to deliver additional value to our international clients through this deal."
