In Practice: How AI Is Changing Patent Work and What It Means for In-House Counsel

A look at why AI has grown incredibly across the IP industry and how it’s continuing to help IP teams like yours.

Customer Success Lead, Patlytics

Nash’s career sits at the intersection of IP, finance, and technology from preparing expert and damages reports at Ocean Tomo, to advising on IP-based M&A and financing as Vice President at Houlihan Lokey, to building KPMG's IP advisory practice from the ground up. That path gave him a firsthand view of where existing patent analytics tools fall short, which is what drew him to Patlytics: a platform bringing validity, infringement, and valuation together in one place. Now he is using his past expertise and knowledge to help Patlytics continue its growth.
