Intellectual Property: Copyright

Position

As a counsel in our Intellectual Property practice in Milan, my expertise focuses on new technologies, copyright, related rights of performers, producers and broadcasters, image rights, advertising, trademarks, design, trade secrets and plant variety, assisting our Italian and international clients with contentious and non-contentious matters.

My continued interest in books, songs, movies, art and technological development has led me to specialise in the media, entertainment and new technologies sectors with particular reference to web reputation, ISP liability, copyright levy, collecting societies, software, data base, apps, blockchain, videogames, TV format, audio visual works, movies, TV programmes, songs and publishing.

I also assist clients on works of art, design, advertising, trade secrets, trademarks, plant variety and tourism law in both contentious and non-contentious matters.

Since joining Bird & Bird in 2004, I have acquired in-depth knowledge of the relevant industries necessary to understand my clients’ needs. I have developed a significant capacity to work across matters involving intellectual property (corporate, employment, banking and tax), as well as cross selling projects.

I have been teaching masters and post-graduate courses at the Università Ca’ Foscari in Venice. I am a lecturer for the Università di Pavia and speak at seminars and conferences on intellectual property. I have lectured at the Università di Pavia in tourism law for several years.

Bird & Bird remains a top choice for multinationals and large domestic companies from an assortment of sectors seeking assistance with contentious and non-contentious intellectual property rights matters. The flexible practice handles cross-border patent matters for innovation-heavy industries like tech and pharma, as well as brand protection, trade mark portfolio management and copyright advice for clients in the gaming, media, sports, luxury goods, and other consumer spaces, and has developed a strong reputation for its work protecting geographical indications for iconic foodstuffs like Prosecco. The sizeable team, which houses its own trade mark and patent filing practice, is led by two highly experienced IP practitioners: the ‘extremely skilled’ Giovanni Galimberti, and the ‘business-oriented’ Massimiliano Mostardini. Other key individuals include patent attorney Antonella De Gregori, whose work covers non-contentious IP matters in the pharma and chemicals sectors; trade secrets, patents, trade marks and designs specialist Edoardo Bàrbera; Fulvio Mellucci, whose broad practice touches issues relating to 3D trade marks; and Rita Tardiolo, who is a key contact for trademark issues and work concerning Protected Designations of Origin (PDO). Claudia Ricciardi is active in transactional IP assistance, particularly in the life sciences space, Elisabetta Bandera is experienced across a variety of IP issues, and Arturo Leone leads on copyright matters, an area where associate Daniele De Angelis is also appreciated.
