Thank you
Nathaniel joined Keltie in 2016 and has experience in drafting and prosecuting patent applications from a wide range of technological fields. His work principally relates to high-tech sustainability technologies in the automotive, agricultural, and renewable energy fields, amongst a broad portfolio that stretches from electrical and industrial power management systems to fashion, packaging and consumer products.
Nathaniel also has experience working in-house at an automotive engineering company, where he worked alongside the various engineering departments to extract inventions from the product development cycle and convert ideas into Intellectual Property assets.
Nathaniel graduated in 2016 with a 1st class Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Bath, where his studies included structural mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid power systems, biomechanics and control systems theory. During his studies, Nathaniel first developed his passion for sustainable engineering projects, sharing his time between his Master's project - producing prototype electro-hydrostatic actuators with high-performance control systems - and his hobby - developing an electric motorcycle that went on to compete in the Isle of Man TT race (just about surviving that ordeal!).
Before joining Keltie, Nathaniel also worked at Atkins, where he developed a particular interest in sustainable construction projects, working on off-shore wind turbine projects, nuclear facilities, and building services.
Nathaniel qualified as both a UK and European patent attorney in 2021.

SMEs and Patents: Unlocking Innovation and Economic GrowthIntellectual property (IP) plays a pivotal role in driving innovation, fostering economic growth, and securing the competitive edge for companies. In the United Kingdom, IP intensive industries account for more than a quarter of the country’s output – around £300 billion a year – while intangible assets, including IP, may make up around 70 to 80% of a company’s overall value [1]. However, SMEs face unique challenges and opportunities when it comes to the realm of IP. In this article, Nathaniel Taylor sheds light on how SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) can mitigate cost issues to capitalise on their IP.
