Katie Tyndall

I am an associate in Bird & Bird's Intellectual Property Group in London where I advise clients on a range of transactional IP issues.

My focus is on non-contentious IP work across a range of industry sectors, including media, sport, technology, retail, hospitality and life sciences.

I advise on the protection and exploitation of all IP rights and work and advise on IP elements of commercial contracts, primarily those relating to new product and technology development. I assist brands with new ways to commercialise their IP, including via licensing, R&D and collaboration arrangements.

I regularly support clients with the IP aspects of corporate transactions and IP-specific issues that arise during the due diligence process of acquisitions and investments.

I joined Bird & Bird in 2018 and qualified in the Intellectual Property Group in 2020. I'm a member of the firm's retail and media groups, and I've contributed to the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys' Journal.
