+Client Testimonials

"Thanks to Clare for the excellent keynote. I liked her presentation very much and thought it fitted well into the conference." Daniel Shalloe, European Patent Office 

 

Clare made an engaging and energetic presentation on AI innovation at our conference on “Patenting Artificial Intelligence” in Munich on 30 May 2018, setting the tone for the day and being a major contributor to the very positive feedback we received for the event. For me as an organiser, it was a real pleasure to work with Clare as she translated perfectly the aims we had for the conference through the structure, content and enthusiasm of her presentation. She also convened important messages through her participation as a panellist in the panel discussion on the “Challenges of drafting applications for AI-related inventions”. -  (Pia Björk, European Patent Office), June 2018

"On behalf of all of Oracle Digital we wanted to thank you for the interest and time you have given to our initiative this morning. I hope you enjoyed the event as much as we did. We only received positive feedback."  Carmen & Arthur, Oracle Digital
