Global intellectual property attorney firm Murgitroyd has today
announced the appointment of a new Director, Patents in its
electronics and software practice.
Nick Hayden, a senior UK and European Patent Attorney based in
the firm’s Glasgow office, assumes the role after 17 years with the
business, where he is a key member of its pan-European electronics
and software team.
Nick, whose technical specialisms include electronics, software
and physics, works with many of the firm's most significant
clients, including a number of multinationals, as well as some of
the most innovative small and medium-sized firms.
Guido Zerbi, head of Murgitroyd's electronics and software
practice, said: "This appointment is key to recognising Nick's
experience and growing leadership role in the practice, and rewards
him for the hard work he has put in over many years in nurturing
and growing our client base."
The firm's CEO Ed Murgitroyd added: "This is an achievement
which recognises talent, dedication and leadership ability. Nick is
an excellent addition to our leadership team, and I very much look
forward to working with him in that capacity."
Nick is relishing the challenge of his new role: "Having gained
experience in most areas of patent practice over the years, I am
looking forward to adding to that experience with additional
management and strategic planning responsibilities and the
challenges that these bring.
“It's a change in outlook for me, but one I am looking forward
to and that I feel well equipped for given my experience.”
Ed Murgitroyd said he hoped Hayden would be enjoying a whisky or
two to celebrate his appointment:
"It's well known that Nick enjoys a good Scottish malt, so I
hope he's picked a quality one to mark this milestone!"
