Joseph’s core interests lie in the fields of materials, manufacturing, sustainability and digital technologies. These stem from a varied route to a patent career, via mathematics and nuclear engineering. Joseph enjoys the process of getting absorbed 'into a creation' and appreciating the detailed work and thought that goes into it. He also enjoys the diversity of working with clients of all sizes from large international companies, to UK-based SMEs and independent inventors.
Since joining Keltie in 2017, Joseph has worked on many aspects of the patents cycle including patent drafting, prosecution in the UK, Europe and worldwide, oppositions and freedom-to-operate assessments. He has also gained a great deal of experience working on designs, in relation to filing design applications as well as search and clearance projects.
Joseph qualified as a European Patent Attorney in 2021 and as a UK Patent and Design Attorney in 2024.
Before Keltie, Joseph worked as a nuclear safety case engineer on the Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C projects. Joseph’s principal focus was on the design of Hinkley Point C’s hazards protection systems.
Joseph graduated from the University of Bristol in 2013 with a Master’s degree in Mathematics. During his degree, Joseph’s studies included Newtonian mechanics, ordinary and partial differential equations, fluid dynamics, quantum physics, relativistic field theory, quantum computing, information theory and computational mathematics.

Setting your IP strategy – Part I: Prioritisation of IP in AIAs a commercial tool, IP rights can increase profits, attract investment, and raise a company's valuation. However, if not approached strategically, the sometimes relatively high costs involved in securing and maintaining some IP rights may render them not worth the investment. More specifically, in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), additional requirements associated with some IP rights may impact an IP strategy. The following article outlines a number of key considerations and tips for maximising the financial benefits of IP in AI.
