»Progress is based on technological innovations. Truly understanding technology is what it takes to successfully protect and defend innovations. That’s how I achieve exceptional results for our clients.«

Dr. Christian Haupt's professional activities focus on the prosecution of both patents and utility models before the German and European patent offices as well as on defending and attacking patents and utility models in opposition proceedings before the competent patent offices, in particular in the fields of mechanical engineering (e.g. sports equipment and medical engineering), telecommunications (e.g. LTE mobile radio communication standards and mobile terminals), IT and computer-implemented inventions, electrical engineering and navigation technology.

Another focus of his is the enforcement of IP rights in patent infringement and (parallel) nullity proceedings before the Federal Patent Court as well as in the context of expert opinions on infringement and validity.
