Our history

yrityksemme perustaja Martin Berggren (002)

 

In the 1930's, Martin Berggren worked together with another engineer in a small office on Lönnrotinkatu. In the 1950’s and 60’s, economic conditions on the domestic and international market had a strong impact on the operations, but the result of Berggren was profitable through these decades, and the number of orders increased. In the 1980's, Berggren expanded its operation by acquisitions and made significant investments in progressive office technology; the group of experts was increased by dozens again.

In the first decade of the third millennium, Berggren had already grown to a firm of more than 100 employees and took a great leap forward in developing its comprehensive selection of IP services as well as sophisticated electronic IP tools and work environments. Berggren continues to grow rapidly as a European full-service IP house with strong expertise not only in Europe but also internationally.

Extensive experience

Berggren has operated in the IP field for more than 85 years. The company was established by Martin Berggren, an experienced patent attorney, in 1936.

In the decades that have followed, Berggren has helped businesses achieve success by taking advantage of intellectual property. Berggren’s operations have seen steady growth and the number of personnel has increased through recruitment as well as carefully considered acquisitions. As the European IP environment has developed, we have evolved from a national player into an international operator that has a strong presence in Europe.

Our extensive experience in the European IP field over several decades has made us a significant player in Europe. Our team includes several European patent attorneys specializing in different fields of technology, and lawyers specializing in trademarks and IP matters, helping you to find the best possible solutions to all your IP matters in Europe.

In European IP cases, we serve our clients globally. Our strong digitalized workspace, communication solutions, the location of Helsinki as a logistic hub for Asian air transport, and our comprehensive global partner network provides us with an extraordinary capacity to serve our Asian and North American clients in European IP matters.
