  Daniel Chew, CIPA Past President, Haseltine Lake Kempner LLP

  As well as being one of the industry’s top mobile and communications technologies experts, Daniel is the driving force behind HLK’s success in Asia. Being a fluent Mandarin speaker and frequent visitor to Asia, Daniel has taken the role of Head of Asia Group and led the firm’s  presence in Asia from strength to strength. It is largely thanks to Daniel’s hard work and strategic thinking that HLK now represents the largest EPO filer in Taiwan and a number of top ten EPO filers in China. Daniel enjoys visiting clients and attending events, as he finds that this is the best way for him to listen to and fully understand each of his client’s needs in order to provide them global strategic IP advice.

  On a higher level, Daniel has been involved in joint missions with patent offices in promoting the IP profession and IP protection in Europe through various overseas visits to Asian countries as well as the USA. In the last couple of years, Daniel also led the Asia Group and hosted delegations from the Shanghai Pudong New Area IP Administration in their visits to Germany and the UK. More significantly, Daniel was invited to be the keynote speaker at an Intellectual Property International Forum which was part of China’s First International Import Expo.

  Daniel has been an active member of the CIPA Council for the last four years and has been a member of CIPA’s International Liaison Committee, chairing the China Working Group, for a number of years.  A leading European Patent Attorney with nearly 20 years’ experience in private practice, Daniel is also recognised as a future leader of the IP profession in the UK. In January 2022, he was appointed Vice-President of CIPA, and as President with effect from 1 January 2023.
