Matt and Ben discussed basic principles of IP protection, options for expedited ‘Green Channel’ patenting and some IP strategy considerations for companies operating in the Green sector in the South West.

Matt Lawman said: “EIP has forged some constructive links with the green technology industry in the South West so we were delighted to be asked to provide this overview to the Low Carbon South West trade association. The session produced some thought-provoking discussion between audience members.”

Trade Secrets: Navigating geopolitical risks and IP theft in the semiconductor industry
04 November 2025
Semiconductors have always been a critical technology but have grown significantly in strategic importance in recent years. They have become the key building block in developing and existing markets, including quantum computing, edge computing, AI, IoT, automotive, cellular data technology, smartphones, robotics, and many more. The complex designs and innovations that power semiconductor manufacturing are invaluable both to the world’s economy and technological advancement. Consequently, the semiconductor industry has found itself at the centre of geopolitical tensions, especially between the United States and China. It has become a prime target for cyberattacks and intellectual-property (IP) theft. As such, companies operating in this area must be more vigilant in protecting their intellectual assets.
