Cantab IP provides creative, practical and strategic advice to allow companies to manage their intellectual property and exploit it efficiently.
Maximise Protection Internationally
We have over twelve years of experience in filing and searching, drafting, filing and prosecuting patents in most of the major industrialised countries of the world (including US, Europe, Japan and elsewhere). The unforgiving nature of many patent systems means that a mistake could cost you the protection you deserve. We help you navigate around these patent systems and make the most of their differences to obtain maximum protection for your invention world-wide.
Reduce Risks and Save Costs
We assist in the early stages by reviewing invention disclosures, talking to inventors and assisting in invention spotting. We can advise on the possible types of claims available so that an informed decision can be made as to whether to initiate the patent drafting process.
IP Healthcheck, IP Audit and Treatment Plan
Our patent agent will undertake an assessment of the strengths and weaknesses in your company’s IP strategy and provide practical recommendations on how to improve your company’s IP position and strategic options for the future.
This IP audit may be conducted as part of the SCOPE IP programme. Our in-house Singapore patent agent is accredited to IPOS, the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore, as a SCOPE IP Consultant. Under the “IPM for SMEs programme”, funding is available to subsidise the cost of hiring a SCOPE IP consulting team.
The audit will assess the strength of your company’s current IP position by analysing your current and potential protection in the fields of patents, trade marks, registered designs, copyright and other intellectual property. It will highlight possible protection for your company’s inventions, brand names, designs, etc
Understand Your Competitors’ IP Positions
Cantab IP helps clients understand the patent landscape and analyse third party patents which might affect their commercial activities. We provide patent infringement and patent validity opinions, product clearance opinions and freedom to operate opinions.
Cantab IP also undertakes IP due diligence reviews as part of licensing, mergers and acquisitions and financing operations.
