Diagnostics, Medical Devices and Healthcare

From Stratagem's origins, it was a natural extension into diagnostics and general healthcare which has resulted in successful involvement in a wide diversity of businesses, including needleless injection, CPR, stents and numerous diagnostic assays.

Stratagem has assisted medical device companies in securing intellectual property assets from the UK and elsewhere and in doing so have been an integral part of the clients' activities in developing their business plans, through technology in-licensing and commercial out-licensing, mergers, and trade acquisitions. Stratagem takes an active role in both the preparation and implementation stages of such strategies.

Key Stratagem attorneys and support staff have extensive experience in business development, licensing and the commercial leverage provided by intellectual property in the exploitation of products in these markets, together with relevant technological experience in fields such as materials, sensing chemistry, instrumentation, microfluidics and biochemistry which provides excellent coverage of this multidisciplinary field.

In this area in particular the Stratagem approach of specifically advising on preferred options and actively leading implementation has delivered major benefits for the clients.
