Richard Penfold
Spear’s Review
Richard Penfold joined Withers from the boutique technology law firm JAG Shaw Baker in 2018.
As a partner in the intellectual property and technology team, Penfold advises his clients on a broad cross-section of intellectual property, life sciences and technology matters, including database rights, copyright, cybersquatting and patents. Since his qualification as a solicitor in 1994, Penfold has worked at several leading law firms, including DLA Piper and Brown Rudnick, where he was the European head of intellectual property.
He told Spear’s that he and his team notably advised ‘a clinical-stage oncology company, Akamis Bio, who have developed a portfolio of tumour-targeted T-SIGn therapeutics which enable a patient’s own immune system to recognise, attack and clear their cancer’.
