I first became aware of Ström & Gulliksson during my studies, when I attended a guest lecture delivered in part by Maria (Weineisen). The opportunity to combine problem-solving, technology and languages, which have always been among my greatest interests, appealed to me, and I decided to apply for the trainee programme.

My time as a trainee at Ström & Gulliksson has been challenging, educational and enjoyable. From day one, we have had the opportunity to work on real cases, giving us valuable insight into the different aspects of the patent profession. Our practical work is complemented by lectures that broaden our understanding of the legal aspects of the role. Having the opportunity to meet clients early on and learn from their expertise and enthusiasm has also been highly motivating and rewarding.

So far, I have had the opportunity to work across a wide range of technical fields, from medical technology to mechanics and electronics. I have thoroughly enjoyed this variety and look forward to continuing to work across different fields. I also look forward to building closer, long-term relationships with our clients. One of my long-term goals is to qualify as a European Patent Attorney.
