LinkedIn now has more than 1.3 billion members across over 200 countries and regions. That makes it more than a professional networking site. Potential clients, founders, SMEs, in-house teams, foreign associates, students, and innovation stakeholders are increasingly searchable, visible, and reachable online. For the IP sector, LinkedIn has become a search layer, trust layer, relationship layer, and business development environment. #### weareip sits at the intersection of Intellectual Property, Strategic Marketing, and Marketing Technology. IP marketing is changing; referrals still matter, but they are no longer the full picture. Our role is to bring the latest integrated marketing system to the IP industry. Ultimately, our goal is to deliver IP sector understanding with strategic marketing and modern marketing technology - from LinkedIn search and audience segmentation to data analysis, outreach workflows, lead generation and prospect nurturing. ![Img-2 (8)](https://www.weareip.agency/hs-fs/hubfs/Img-2%20(8).png?width=924&height=603&name=Img-2%20(8).png) ## Who we are We are not a generalist marketing agency. We are marketing thinkers, IP specialists, and LinkedIn growth operators focused exclusively on the IP sector. Our work is global in perspective, specialist in focus, and built around one belief: transform invisible expertise into visible impact and to turn IP professionals into powerful, scalable brands - across digital platforms, global markets, and client touchpoints. ## The Values That Drive Us Tailored approach We do not believe in one-size-fits-all delivery. Our founders stay close to every project, ensuring each client relationship is shaped around their market, objectives, internal capacity, and growth priorities. Specialist Thinking Better work comes from knowing where you belong. Our IP focus brings more relevant industry thinking and commercial expertise to every cluent relationship. Data-driven results Technology should make marketing more precise. We use data and LinkedIn marketing systems to improve how we research, reach, and engage audiences while keeping strategy at the centre. ## Meet our founder ![Ivan Gauci Color](https://www.weareip.agency/hs-fs/hubfs/weareip%202025/Ivan%20Gauci%20Color.png?width=340&height=340&name=Ivan%20Gauci%20Color.png) ![Ivan Gauci Dark](https://www.weareip.agency/hs-fs/hubfs/weareip%202025/Ivan%20Gauci%20Dark.png?width=340&height=340&name=Ivan%20Gauci%20Dark.png) ### Ivan Gauci founder and CMO at weareip Follow me: [![linkedin](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/weareip%202025/linkedin.svg)](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivangauci/) With a strong foundation in both strategic marketing and intellectual property management, I bring a unique combination of commercial insight, sector-specific and digital expertise to the world of growth marketing for IP professionals. Before founding weareip, I built my marketing experience across telecoms, travel and tourism, and FMCG - gaining a practical understanding of brand positioning, customer behaviour, communication strategy and business development across competitive markets. In 2014, I transitioned into the intellectual property field, where I served as Deputy Director at the Malta Intellectual Property Office before joining the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), gaining valuable experience across customer experience, business development, marketing research, stakeholder engagement and IP awareness campaigns within the European IP ecosystem. Today, together with the weareip team, I specialise in helping IP professionals, IP firms and IP-focused organisations use LinkedIn as a strategic channel for growth marketing and business development. Additionally, I provide strategic LinkedIn training and guidance to IP professionals and firms together with fractional CMO support, whilst taking a personal interest in every client relationship, ensuring each strategy is tailored to each client’s goals, scale and market position. ## Our Marketing Technology Ecosystem At weareip, technology supports the way we plan, target, communicate, and measure. We use a carefully selected marketing technology ecosystem to strengthen audience intelligence, LinkedIn search, content planning, outreach workflows, automation, analytics, and reporting. These tools help us deliver more structured, precise, and scalable marketing support for IP professionals and organisations, while keeping strategy and and human communication at the centre of the work. ![Group 627 copy 1](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Group%20627%20copy%201.svg) ![Group-1](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Group-1.svg) ![Group 624](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Group%20624.svg) ![Group 629](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Group%20629.svg) ![6U0tpIB2PVTbRf3cvC43IhdCI 2 copy 1](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/6U0tpIB2PVTbRf3cvC43IhdCI%202%20copy%201.svg) ![Group 628](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Group%20628.svg) ![Group 626](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Group%20626.svg) The technologies referenced are tools used within our service delivery.

He understood, without me having to explain, why selling marketing to IP lawyers is so hard: the time pressure, the referral culture, and the hesitation many IP professionals feel about putting themselves out there. He did not oversell. He pushed me to get clearer on who I am really building for, and why. That kind of honest, direct conversation is hard to find.” ![rishabh saxena](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/rishabh%20saxena.jfif) ###### RISHABH SAXENA ##### Founder, Namami Law Offices and RedMan Stories ![quote](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/testimonial%20arrow.svg) “weareip helped me strengthen my LinkedIn presence by positioning my profile around both my technical IP expertise and professional value proposition. What stood out was the ability to combine IP-sector knowledge with modern marketing strategy, translating complex services into clearer, more client-focused messaging. The work went beyond profile optimisation. It helped build a stronger professional identity, improve credibility and visibility, and communicate my niche within the IP field more effectively.” ![Nirvana Tork](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/Nirvana%20Tork.png) ###### NIRVANA TORK ##### IP Consultant & WIPO IP Certified Trainer ![quote](https://www.weareip.agency/hubfs/testimonial%20arrow.svg) “Working with weareip on the LinkedIn positioning of my personal and company profiles was a smooth, high-quality experience.
