Mr. GIbbs' intellectual
property expertise is built on his deep first hand knowledge
of product design and engineering technology.
His engineering experience began in
Silicon Valley during the late 1970s, and reaches across
many products and industries including medical devices,
automotive components, sporting goods, software, computer
hardware, connectors technology, architecture, production
line machinery, games, manufactured buildings, recording
media and water treatment systems.
In addition to high technology, industrial
and software product development, Mr. Gibbs developed
an extensive architectural design portfolio of residential,
industrial, restaurant, medical office, and shopping
center projects.
From independent inventor, to developer
of many of the world's "firsts" for Silicon
Valley pioneers, Mr. Gibbs understands the entire technology
development lifecycle more acutely than most other intellectual
property managers, strategists and patent attorneys.
This background is an invaluable foundation
upon which his executive guidance to CXOs is based.
