About David Chin

He possess expertise in intellectual property, licensing, trademarks, legal advice, patents and 10 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I recently engaged David to act for me on some IP matters. His response was measured, professional and comprehensive. David used the opportunity to educate me on the issue so that going forward I was armed with enough information to form my own decisions and opinions as much as possible. He was diligent, prompt, and his communication was excellent and reliable. David had the ability to sort my legal concerns whilst easing my stress levels, presenting clear information in a calm and objective manner.", "David provided me with invaluable legal guidance on a number of technology transfer projects while I worked for Melbourne Ventures (the University of Melbourne's TTO). David consistently demonstrated a client-oriented attitude, technical and legal mastery and the uncanny ability to make the impossible possible. It is therefore a considerable gain for the broader innovation community (and the University's loss), that he has returned to the private sector. I wish him all the best.", and "I had the pleasure of working with David at the University of Melbourne on several IP licensing contracts and other commercial matters. David is highly professional, solution-focused, and very proactive and collaborative in his approach. His strong ability to understand and balance the needs of industry has been a real asset in negotiating and closing licence transactions with commercial partners. I highly recommend David."
