Patents
You will come across patented technology in your everyday life;
the jar with screw top lid you got your jam out of,
or the mower you cut your lawn with last night.
Patents cover all sorts: new products or new equipment, computer related inventions, plants and micro-organisms.
Had a Eureka moment?
We can take you right through the motions.
- First registration and protection
- Finding means for the development and research of your idea that may not of been available to you; for instance a collaboration agreement.
- Exploiting the patent so you get the benefits you deserve.
- Defending your patent against infringers.
Patents are a balancing act, a trade off between you, the inventor, and the state. By registering your patent, it is made public enabling others to use your work to further their knowledge towards the ‘next step’. If you can keep your patentable material schtum, an application for registration may not be the best course of action!
