Emma Jansson Hjerdt

European Patent Attorney

Emma has worked with patents since 2007 and at Brann since 2013. Before entering the patent profession, she worked as a technical translator and interpreter. She has specialist expertise in mechanics, with a particular focus on precision mechanics, automotive technology, process industry, energy technology and the forest industry. She is also trained and experienced in electronics and semiconductor technology.

Emma provides strategic intellectual property advice and drafts and prosecutes patent applications. She also conducts patentability studies and freedom-to-operate analyses, works with oppositions, and advises on infringement and validity matters.

In her work, Emma places great importance on identifying the core of each invention and focusing the patent protection on what is technically and commercially relevant. This allows the patent protection to be tailored both to the innovation and to the client's needs.

In addition to her client work, Emma is a member of one of the European examination committees responsible for preparing and marking the European Qualifying Examination (EQE).
