Albright IP is delighted to support The Surgeon Show as Intellectual Property Partner, championing the innovations that are transforming surgical practice.  As a firm of British and European Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys, Albright IP has a long track record of helping clinicians, surgical consultants and med‑tech companies to safeguard their ideas and translate them into real‑world impact.

From early-stage concepts sketched between cases, through to fully developed devices, digital tools and new procedures, Albright IP works with innovators to secure practical, potent and cost‑effective IP protection in the UK and internationally.  Their attorneys regularly advise on patents, registered designs, copyright and trade marks, creating coherent protection strategies that support both patient benefit and commercial success.

For surgical consultants, the journey from translating advances in theatre to a protected, market ready solution can feel complex and time pressured.  Albright IP helps to simplify that journey.

The team can advise on how and when to disclose new ideas, how to keep appropriate records, and how best to structure collaborations with hospitals, universities, industry partners and spin‑out companies.  By aligning IP protection with regulatory pathways and funding milestones, they help surgeons to retain value in their innovations while still enabling robust clinical evaluation and adoption.

Albright IP’s experience spans a wide range of technologies relevant to surgery, including instruments, implants, imaging, robotics, medical software and data‑driven platforms. Their attorneys combine technical understanding with commercial insight, supporting clients with patent drafting and filing, design registrations, trade mark protection for new brands and products, and ongoing prosecution and enforcement around the world. They are trusted advisors to individual consultants, clinical entrepreneur programmes and established med‑tech manufacturers alike.

At The Surgeon Show, Albright IP will be represented by patent attorney Will Doherty.  Will works closely with medical and engineering innovators and understands the practical constraints of developing new solutions alongside demanding clinical workloads.  He will be available during Plenary 6b – Innovation Spotlights and throughout the event to discuss ideas in confidence, offer initial guidance on protection strategies, and signpost the next steps for surgeons who are considering how best to protect and commercialise their innovations.  Will will also be speaking about MedTech innovation in an upcoming May episode of Albright IP’s podcast, “Figure 1: an IP conversation”, which can be viewed via the Albright IP YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/@AlbrightpatentsCoUk

Commenting on Albright IP’s support for The Surgeon Show, Will said: “I am extremely experienced in supporting surgeons turn day‑to‑day problem solving into protected innovation that can be safely developed, funded and adopted for patient benefit.  I am very much looking forward to attending The Surgeon Show, hearing first‑hand about the ideas coming out of surgical practice, and exploring how thoughtful IP strategies can help those ideas make the leap from concept to clinic.”

By supporting The Surgeon Show, Albright IP underlines its commitment to helping surgical consultants turn creative vision into protected, investable and ultimately life‑changing advances in patient care.
