This year marks the 35th anniversary of Brichta & Partners, a leading Slovak law firm specializing in intellectual property (IP) and innovation law. Over the past three decades, the firm has helped shape the IP landscape in Slovakia, supporting both startups and established companies in protecting and scaling their innovations globally.
With nine Law Firm of the Year awards for IP, Brichta & Partners has become synonymous with strategic IP advisory—not only in fast-growing tech and deep-tech sectors, but also in pharma, biomedicine, creative industries, and among independent inventors. Across all these fields, the firm champions a simple but powerful belief: the idea matters. In an era where innovation drives value, a company’s most important asset is often its intellectual capital—its brand, design, algorithm, or unique know-how.
To celebrate this milestone, the firm is launching Protect & Grow 2025, a flagship international conference taking place on November 11, 2025, in Bratislava. Unlike traditional legal events, this conference will blend legal, business, and innovation perspectives — focusing not only on IP protection, but also on funding, international expansion, and long-term brand building.
Speakers will include global experts on software patents, AI regulation, and IP strategy from the UK, Hungary, and Austria, as well as one of today’s most influential AI-focused YouTubers.
“Slovak companies are no longer just protecting what they’ve built, they’re thinking globally from day one. Protect & Grow 2025 reflects this mindset shift, and we’re proud to help lead that conversation,” said Tatiana Brichtová, Managing Partner at Brichta & Partners.
