Julia Gwilt

Julia has worked in the patent profession in the Cambridge area for more than 20 years, and in January 2017 she opened Appleyard Lees’ Cambridge office. She oversees the patent portfolios for a wide variety of direct clients.

Julia’s mathematics background is a natural fit to her work on software-implemented inventions, including bioinformatics and communication networks, but also provides a springboard for working in other technological sectors.

She enjoys a close working relationship with both Cambridge-based and international clients to help them develop and implement their worldwide IP strategy. She has also extensive experience in contentious matters such as European Patent Office oppositions.
