Dr. Benjamin Röck

Expertise

The focus of Benjamin Roeck’s work is on drafting, obtaining and defending patents in the fields of computer and information technology, software, components, automation technology and biosensors. In particular, Benny has many years of experience in the currently particularly sought-after fields of machine learning, cryptography and blockchains, where the limits of patentability in terms of technicality typically have to be explored and thus special knowledge of the relevant case law is required.

In terms of fundamentals, Benny is a trained physicist, holds a PhD in astrophysics and has authored numerous papers in the field of modeling and analysis of stellar galactic populations in the infrared range. His deep scientific background enables him to quickly and efficiently familiarize himself with new technical fields.

Benny is the father of two small children and is often in Italy for family reasons. His main hobbies include traveling and outdoor sports such as mountain hiking, cycling and cross-country skiing. In the evenings, Benny teaches the pupils at the Unterföhring grammar school the basics of astronomy and in particular how to observe with a telescope.

He is a member of EPI.
