The Challenge

86% of patents are commercially worthless.

Not because they're badly written. Because they protect the non-relevant subject-matter.

R&D invents something. Legal files it. Whether it protects how the company makes money often isn't part of the standard process.

Filing KPIs put constant pressure on inhouse IP teams. The question stops being 'Is this worth protecting?' and becomes 'Do we have enough to hit our number?'

Our Approach

We treat patents as business assets. Every filing decision starts with one question: Does this protect how you make money?

When filing decisions are based on commercial relevance, grant rates reflect it.

How We Work

Our process.

01

Business Analysis

We map your revenue model, competitive landscape, and growth strategy. This defines what is worth protecting.

02

Strategic Selection

We assess your R&D output through a commercial lens. Inventions that protect your market position get prioritized.

03

Patent Application

We draft and file applications built on commercial relevance. The result: patents that protect what actually matters to your business.

Technical Areas.

The fields we work in. Each case is handled by an attorney with a degree in the discipline, and backed by a patent we have filed.

AI & Software

Computer-implemented inventions, machine learning, and software architectures, assessed against current EPO practice on patentability.

On file for: [client + technology]

Life Sciences & Medtech

Medical devices and diagnostics, where patent filing runs alongside regulatory approval under the MDR.

On file for: [client + technology]

Biotech

In biotech, patents decide whether a company can raise money at all. Without fundamental IP, an RNAi therapeutics company is not financeable. With it, it can pioneer a whole new class of therapeutics.

On file for: Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, pioneer of RNAi therapeutics.

Materials & Chemistry

Substances, processes, uses, and formulations, each protectable in its own right.

On file for: [client + technology]

Cleantech & Energy
