Jean Dickman has announced the formation of Kies IP, a woman-owned Intellectual Property firm. Leveraging her decades of experience, Dickman will deliver creative, personalized solutions for technology innovators.
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Jean Dickman is no stranger to innovation. For the past twenty years, she has guided creators, innovators, and technologists through the complexities of protecting their intellectual property at am AMLaw firm. In the next evolution of her practice, she is leveraging her well-practiced skills, renowned strategic mindset, and unparalleled client service to launch Kies IP. This woman-owned intellectual property law firm supports IP portfolio management to help guide and empower innovation.
Intentional, thoughtful decision-making is a throughline in Dickman's career, even seen in the name of her new venture. Kies IP takes inspiration from Mary Dixon Kies, the first woman to apply for and receive a U.S. patent. Kies's process for weaving straw with silk or thread in the hat-making process was necessitated by embargoes during the War of 1812. The hat industry thrived thanks to Kies's ingenuity while many others suffered. Like Kies, Dickman has a penchant for working through obstacles and weaving together individual elements to craft a stronger, sustainable end product.
"I saw the opportunity to take my practice in a new direction," said Dickman. "Often, innovation comes with a big price tag, but it's a field that can and should be open to all. With the formation of Kies IP, I hope to support businesses in their creative and entrepreneurial journeys."
Kies IP offers support in patent applications and prosecution, trademark registration, copyright registration and counseling, IP licensing, and due diligence support for mergers and acquisitions.
