Before joining the firm, Daan researched copyright law and policy for more than two years in New York at the Fordham IP Institute under Professor Hugh Hansen, where he interfaced with judges, practitioners, academics and government leaders from around the world, including heads of agencies such as the U.S. Copyright Office, European Commission, United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), U.S. Trade Representative and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
