I.T. and Biotechnology

WhitneyMoore has a strong reputation in the area of intellectual property, resulting in a large number of clients in the technology sector. The firm is also actively involved in the Irish Software Association and acts for many clients in this important industry. Matters on which the firm regularly advises include venture capital investments, private fundraising, flotations, patent licensing, patent infringement, website terms and conditions. As some of our client companies are spin-offs of Irish universities and other third level institutions, we have extensive experience of negotiating with those institutions on patent ownership and equity levels.
