Annette Byhøj-Larsen

Patent Administrator (EPAC)

My background and fields of specialization

Administration and coordination of patent related cases
As a patent administrator I handle all coordinating and administrative tasks in relation to the filing and prosecution of patent applications in both Denmark and abroad, including validations of European patents, recording of transfers, renewal payments etc. I also have extensive experience in handling the administrative steps involved in post-grant procedures, such as oppositions and appeals.

Educational background and fields of specialization
I hold an MA in Business Language, German, and a BA in Business Languages, English and German. I keep up my knowledge by attending courses in Denmark and abroad on a regular basis. In 2023 I passed the EPAC exam (European Patent Administration Certification) organized by the European Patent Office.

My clients and tasks range widely, from start-ups to large corporations and universities in Denmark and abroad. I mainly work within the field of mechanics and electronics, but I also handle cases within biotechnology and chemistry.

Experience
After more than 20 years in patent consulting, I have gained high expertise within the field. Before joining Inspicos, I worked as a patent administrator in two other large IP law firms in Denmark and have also been stationed in Munich for about three years.
