Every April, people worldwide come together to advance sustainability and climate action in commemoration of Earth Day.

 

Our world needs transformation. It’s time for people across the globe to hold businesses accountable for their role in our environmental crisis while calling for innovative solutions. Here at Keltie, we are committed to net zero.

 

This Earth Day, Keltie is reinforcing our commitment to being transparent and accountable in our efforts to integrate sustainability into our business further—and to challenge ourselves to extend our efforts to move towards a sustainable and climate-resilient future.

 

To commemorate World Earth Day 2023, we would like to announce the launch of our Diversity, Inclusion, Charity and Environment Committee (DICE). This team of dedicated Keltie employees are on a mission to ensure that we see real change in the areas of diversity, inclusion and sustainability here at Keltie and within the industry.


Since Keltie was founded, the firm has focused on its people and the move away from traditional ways of working in the industry that had many prejudices associated with it.

 

DICE Committee

Thirty-five years ago, founder David Keltie knew that there had to be a better way of doing things. This is behind the ethos of the DICE committee. Here at Keltie, there is a skillset and interest among teams looking to drive positive change. Our dedicated sustainability team meets regularly to explore client growth areas and educational opportunities for staff.

 

Keltie wants to be at the forefront of businesses making changes in this area. These include changes in:

  • the way that we work
  • the way we interact with each other
  • the impact we have on the environment

Listen to Joanne Hopley, Partner, discuss sustainable technology, and Tom Franks-Moore, Associate at Keltie, speak about the global climate emergency.

Following the recent decision of the Appointed Person (AP) in Tradeix Ltd v New Holland Ventures Pty Ltd BL (O/681/22) (Marco Polo Case), the UKIPO will now require a local address in the UK (or in Gibraltar or the Channel Islands) before any formal serving of documents in contentious proceedings relating to UK designations of International trade mark or design registrations. Failure to provide a UK address for service may result in a challenged registration being cancelled or an opposed trade mark being treated as withdrawn.

Women and IP: a continuing journey

It’s now over 30 years since I joined the patent attorney profession. When I started, there were relatively few female patent attorneys, partly due to much lower numbers of women studying STEM subjects at university. I recall I was one of about six women in a cohort of 90 studying chemistry at Imperial College, and there were even fewer in the engineering departments. Today, thankfully there are more women in the profession – but there are still things we need to improve.
