Currently Senior Managing Attorney at Pure Ideas, Vikki leads a team of patent and trademark attorneys with a focus on helping SMEs not only secure their innovations but also understand how to maximise their commercial value.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Falling into IP and Finding a Calling<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI sort of fell into IP by happy accident,\u201d Vikki recalls. With dual master\u2019s degrees in engineering and biomedical engineering, she was on a path toward medical technology when job opportunities in the field proved elusive. A patent officer role at the Ministry of Defence opened the door to a whole new world. \u201cI didn\u2019t know what to expect,\u201d she says, \u201cbut I found I really enjoyed it.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her early experiences included interrogating the inner workings of everyday objects in job interviews and working with inventions that reminded her of her grandfather\u2019s love of quirky gadgets. It quickly became clear: this wasn\u2019t just a job \u2014 it was a perfect fit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From Jet Engines to Software to SatNav<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the years, Vikki has worked across engineering, aerospace, medical devices, and software. One standout experience involved reverse-engineering gas turbine engines to better understand geared architectures. Another was working on early patents for satellite navigation systems, before satnav became a staple in every smartphone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What links these disparate sectors? \u201cYou see things go from concept to something really cool and everywhere,\u201d she says. \u201cYou never stop learning.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Practical IP Partner for SMEs<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Pure Ideas, Vikki\u2019s passion lies in helping small and medium-sized businesses use IP as a strategic tool, not just a legal checkbox.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMany SMEs come to us thinking \u2018I need to protect this\u2019, but often they don\u2019t realise the bigger picture,\u201d she explains. Vikki and her team begin by understanding a client\u2019s commercial goals: Will the product be made in-house? Will they need collaborators? What are the real risks and opportunities?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe give them a wider understanding, not just of registered rights like patents and trademarks, but also how to safeguard trade secrets, negotiate access to third-party IP, and avoid unintentional infringement.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>IP in Action: Webinars, Podcasts and Warzones<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A natural communicator, Vikki has become an influential voice in IP education. Through webinars and podcasts, she tackles real-world challenges SMEs face, from drafting effective IP agreements to navigating collaborative innovation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One compelling initiative is her work with Remote Area Risk International, a network helping to solve medical challenges in remote and high-risk areas. With her defence and medtech background, Vikki offers guidance on protecting innovations in extreme environments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s amazing what people can come up with using limited resources. That ingenuity deserves protection,\u201d she says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Championing Inclusion and Innovation<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vikki is also a vocal advocate for diversity and inclusion in the IP world, having worked with Rolls-Royce\u2019s Inclusion Council and IP Inclusive. Her passion project? Supporting the IP sector\u2019s menopause initiative, a topic she believes is long overdue for open discussion.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve always felt a bit of a square peg,\u201d she admits. \u201cBut I\u2019ve found communities where difference is celebrated. That\u2019s where I belong.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Life Beyond Law: Boxing, Theatre, and the Big Screen<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To decompress from the pressures of senior IP practice, Vikki turns to karate, boxing, and the performing arts. She volunteers at a local performing arts academy and even made a cameo as a barmaid in a short horror film that went on to win awards at the Brighton Rocks International Film Festival.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt was a happy accident,\u201d she laughs, echoing the phrase that started her IP journey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Advice for Aspiring IP Professionals<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To young professionals, especially women, Vikki says: \u201cGo for it. Believe in yourself. You\u2019ll face challenges, but this is a rewarding career that never gets boring.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She adds, \u201cYou don\u2019t need to come from an elite university. Curiosity, creativity, and communication are just as valuable.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why This Matters to SMEs<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vikki\u2019s story embodies the ethos behind PatWorld\u2019s mission: connecting innovators with the tools, insights, and people they need to succeed.
