Sini-Maaria Mikkilä

I am an experienced European Patent Attorney who has been helping clients protect and defend their inventions since 2008. My expertise lies particularly in industrial machinery and equipment, automation, hydraulics, measurement technology, and energy solutions. I assist clients in all IP matters – from patenting strategies to opposition and infringement cases, as well as employee invention matters. I especially enjoy analyzing technical solutions, assessing the scope of protection, conducting technology landscape studies, and preparing expert opinions. I am also passionate about increasing IP awareness and regularly organize IP trainings and workshops.

In addition to my work as a patent attorney, I serve as Chief Strategy Officer at Boco IP, where I focus on developing processes and practices to better meet client needs. I am also a board member and membership coordinator of the Finnish Association for Patent Attorneys (SPAY) since 2023, and I represent Finland as an alternate delegate in FICPI. Furthermore, I actively contribute to FICPI’s Practice Management Committee (PMC) and CET3 International Patent Matters Committee. Based in our Tampere office, I support clients across Finland and internationally in Finnish, English, and Swedish.

My work spans a wide range of industries, including industrial manufacturing, health technology, renewable energy, and logistics. However, I am happy to assist with any IP-related matters – feel free to reach out.
