Visit from Poland – AIPEX Exchange Program

News

November 13, 2024

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting Mateusz Rosiek from AOMB Polska as part of the AIPEX Exchange Program.

AIPEX is an international network of intellectual property law firms. As the Scandinavian partner in AIPEX, Håmsø Patentbyrå can provide streamlined management of IP portfolios for larger international companies.

The AIPEX Exchange program offers our employees a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in different cultures, meet experts from other countries, and exchange knowledge. This experience broadens our professional network and strengthens the global connections within the AIPEX community.

This time, it was our turn to host Mateusz, who visited us from Poland. We started the visit with coffee and delicious pastries on Monday morning. Mateusz also brought Polish plum snacks covered in chocolate – a tasty surprise that we all greatly appreciated!

During the week, Mateusz gained valuable insight into how we work at Håmsø. He was positively surprised by our weekly meetings, which he sees as an effective way to ensure transparency and keep track of ongoing matters. Throughout the visit, we had interesting discussions on professional topics, cultural differences, and of course, good food and drink. 

Dinner in good company.

Mateusz was curious about our workflow and wanted to learn more about how we handle daily tasks together. One important takeaway from his visit was Rob's approach to searches. He found the method useful and plans to apply it in his future work.

Når det gjelder fremtidige muligheter for samarbeid, ser Mateusz potensial for å dele studiemateriell for unge patentfullmektiger som forbereder seg til EQE-eksamenene. Han håper dette kan bli et spennende prosjekt for både AOMB Polska og Håmsø. Han vil videre anbefale andre som deltar i programmet å bo i Stavanger sentrum, da byen har en hyggelig atmosfære og enkel pendlevei til kontoret. 

On Friday, Mateusz enjoyed an exciting tour of the Oil Museum, where he learned about the region’s historical significance in the oil industry. A highlight was the visit to the museum’s sonic cannon, where the loud sound nearly scared the life out of our dear HR manager, Hege.

We thank Mateusz for his visit and for a new and memorable acquaintance.
