Jari Ristola
I work as a patent attorney at Genip Oy, based in our Kotka office. I hold a Master of Science in Energy Technology and have been involved in intellectual property for many years.
Before entering the field, I worked as a research and development engineer and as a product development manager in the paper machine industry. I’ve also worked as a patent engineer in the industrial sector, which has given me a solid understanding of IP protection needs from a company’s perspective. My work has covered areas such as energy technology, fluidized bed combustion and gasification, internal combustion engines, pumps, emission reduction technologies, marine technology, pulp and paper machinery and processes, locking technologies, and paper finishing.
My approach to work is based on thoroughness and a business-oriented mindset. I believe that strong protection starts with high-quality work – but it’s equally important that the client clearly understands the situation and the recommended actions. I always aim to avoid overly complex technical jargon and to communicate in a way that supports the client’s decision-making as effectively as possible.
If you’re looking for a patent attorney who combines technical insight, hands-on experience, and clear communication, I’m here to help.
