Andrea Walsh, Ph.D, J.D's Linkedin Analytics

I specialize in evaluating patent, competitive, and business landscapes of potential products and R&D investments throughout product development stages, patent filing and prosecution and post grant challenges. I clearly communicate information to strategic decision makers of client organization of potential risk, patent strength, and commercial viability. I arrange teams to align research and marketing budgets with gained intelligence. Innovate product development and R&D decisions at an early stage by performing pre-emptive freedom to operate, patent landscapes, and other patent intelligence searches before money is spent on development or patent filing. Focus patent filing efforts in areas more likely to produce stronger and broader patents aligned with business goals. I previously volunteered for a GenAI patent analytics startup needing client feedback. I have advanced my knowledge through online classes on machine learning, generative AI, LLMs, deep reinforcement learning, etc. I am seeking to volunteer at a GenAI software startup focusing on life science patent application drafting. I have developed unique markers for patent validity and enforceability resulting in issued patents that successfully withstand IPR challenges at different stages, including initiation stage. These parameters are useful in any area but I prefer medical or plant biotechnology, especially biopharmaceuticals and biologics. If your GenAI tool is incorporating cost-savings features by increasing validity and minimizing litigation costs while maintaining a commercially valuable claim scope. Let's discuss how my feedback as a volunteer can benefit software development for application drafting and prior art searching. Educate and gain acceptance of this significant strategic change to technical and non-technical staff through continual muli-media presentations.
