A lawyer with a rock ‘n’ roll attitude and a literary flair. Passionate about negotiations and knowledge sharing. Creator of success and editor-in-chief of “SKP IP Blog” – a portal for the creative industry and business (skpipblog.pl). He is interested in new technologies and in his spare time he devours books and films, listens to music and plays amateur electric guitar – probably that is why he feels so comfortable supporting the creative and technological sector for years.
