Introducing POF Asia Direct
Since our inception, Phillips Ormonde Fitzpatrick (POF) has worked with clients around the world. While in the last century (and the one before!), we focused on our clients’ interests in Europe and America, the 21st century has seen greater focus on the Asian region as a driver of growth. In response to this growth, and Australia’s key position in the region, POF has been working with our clients to develop a ‘one stop shop’ for IP protection throughout South East Asia.
How does it work?
Over the past decade, we have been working with clients to bundle their IP interests in the South East Asian region, allowing for cost effective management of IP through a single point of contact. POF represents clients directly before IP offices in Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and Vanuatu. In other South East Asian Countries, we have established trusted relationships with IP associates from whom we receive preferential treatment and fees.
What we do
POF’s full suite of services is available in South East Asia. Patent, trade mark and design services include:
- Filing
- IP portfolio management
