Manufacturing

Manufacturing is New Zealand’s most innovative sector. Manufacturing companies have recognised that innovation is a key factor in sustaining growth, and a high percentage of NZ companies introduce new products or processes every year. For several years the government has been strongly encouraging companies to invest in design, research and development to create world leading technologies that will enable them to compete on the world stage. A J Park has grown its own capabilities in order to work with these companies to capture and exploit the derivative intellectual property.

The team at A J Park works closely with manufacturing companies ranging from New Zealand's largest product exporter, through to small, specialised niche manufacturers. A J Park’s partners, attorneys and solicitors regularly participate in events designed to support New Zealand's manufacturing sector including the EMA’s Go Global events, Export New Zealand seminars as well as many industry and technology related events. Our patents, designs, trade marks and commercial teams integrate seamlessly to ensure that manufacturers IP position is strong, and commercial objectives are achieved.
