Start of cooperation with YUSARN AUDREY, Singapore
The aim of this new cooperation is not only to establish a liaison in the area of IP law generally, but also to jointly promote technology transfer between Asia and Europe in particular, with the focus being on technology transfer between the ASEAN countries and German SMEs. With their particular expertise and existing contacts, BARDEHLE PAGENBERG and YUSARN AUDREY wish to provide support for projects relating to technology licensing, cooperation, joint ventures, and mergers and acquisitions.
Singapore, which is considered the gateway to the ASEAN countries, played a crucial role in the very establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community. It is here that YUSARN AUDREY, which boasts excellent connections with all the relevant local and regional institutions, was founded in 1999 as one of the first specialist IP law firms in Singapore and the surrounding region.
This strategic partnership makes BARDEHLE PAGENBERG one of the first German IP law firms to focus on providing advice and contacts in the area of technology transfer to Asia.
