Dr. Christopher Brückner joins the international IP law firm Dennemeyer & Associates in Munich and brings in his expertise in the areas of chemical, pharmaceutical and biotech matters, as well as European patent and trademark law.

Dr. Robert Fichter, Managing Director at Dennemeyer & Associates, notes: "Many IP experts in the pharmaceutical industry know Dr. Christopher Brückner as the author of the German-English commentary on Supplementary Protection Certificates (SPCs). With his experience as both a patent attorney and a pharmacist, Dr. Brückner is a valuable addition to Dennemeyer and we welcome him to our team!"

Dr. Christopher Brückner studied pharmacy at the Free University of Berlin and was admitted to the German patent bar in 2005. Before joining Dennemeyer, Dr. Brückner worked within the patent department of an internationally-known German company and two patent law firms. A prominent figure in the IP world, his articles are published in law journals, and he is frequently invited to speak on the topic of SPCs at various events. Dr. Brückner is also a co-author of the Singer / Stauder commentary on the European Patent Convention and plans to publish the next issue of the Supplementary Protection Certificates (SPCs) commentary next summer. 

About this new career path, Dr. Brückner states: "I am excited to be part of the Dennemeyer & Associates team! My entire career has been spent in the pharmaceuticals and IP industry and I look forward to help build up the company’s international SPC practice."

The Higher Regional Court of Dusseldorf has selected Dr. Brückner as a court-appointed expert in 2012 and, in 2016, the Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition requested that he participates in the preparation of a study commissioned by the EU.
