We advise on patent protection with a view to building strong portfolios. Ring fencing important technology or product platforms through the patent system and aligning the same with corporate goals is not very simple and requires careful attention of seasoned practitioners. Each client is different because of its size, industry, and life cycle, and therefore cannot adopt a plain vanilla approach to patent management. Having our team on its side, can prove invaluable when developing a robust approach.
We create unique strategies at each stage by providing analysis of whitespaces, helping identify licensing opportunities, preparing broad and enforceable patent claims, strategically obtaining patents in key international markets, managing technology life-cycles vis-a-vis patent term to maintain a competitive edge, and reviewing portfolios to recognize and value a client’s patent assets. We have years of experience advising in-house counsel, and hand holding medium and small sized companies and start-ups on patent portfolio management.
