RPC has hired partner Jeremiah Chew as a partner for its Singapore office, where it operates a joint law venture RPC Premier Law, to enhance its intellectual property (IP), technology and competition capabilities in Asia.
“The rapid adoption of AI has created novel issues around IP ownership and infringement, and Jerry is well placed to advise clients on these emerging issues given his experience,” Navin Joseph Lobo, partner and head of the Singapore office at RPC Premier Law, told Asia Business Law Journal.
He also noted that the expansion of digital platforms and markets has drawn increasing scrutiny from competition regulators. With Chew’s dual strengths in technology and competition law, he would be positioned to guide clients through the regulatory and commercial challenges in this space, said Lobo.
