About Kyma Professional Corporation

Kyma Professional Corporation is a one lawyer intellectual property firm in Ottawa, founded and run by lawyer and patent agent Ariadni Athanassiadis. The practice covers IP audits and due diligence, legal opinions on patentability, registrability, and freedom to operate, and drafting or reviewing agreements such as licensing, confidentiality, and assignment contracts. Kyma also advises on IP filings, IP policy, and dispute resolution, treating patents, trademarks, copyrights, industrial designs, and trade secrets as parts of a client's overall business plan rather than isolated filings.

The firm works mainly with small and medium enterprises, entrepreneurs, and creative professionals. Beyond direct legal work, Kyma runs A.R.T. of Law, a set of workshops and a five part program covering IP fundamentals, confidentiality agreements, licensing, and conflict resolution for founders and creatives. It also builds custom workshop packages for groups of four to twelve people, with separate tracks for scientists, engineers, and researchers and for writers, artists, designers, and other creative professionals. Kyma's website has been online since March 2014.
