Impact to your business
Conflicting IP is one of the most significant risk factors you will face in medtech. Our IPN program helps you face this risk head-on by circumventing the critical IP and creating novel solutions that can result in valuable patents of your own. Reducing IP risk and bolstering your patent portfolio can be one of the fastest and most effective ways to build value in your company.
How it works
Our medtech experts follow a proven process that consistently delivers creative and comprehensive technical outputs to navigate the critical intellectual property concerns .
REVIEW IP CONFLICTS
We start by identifying and assessing the patents of concern, specifically around conflicting claim language.
CONCEPT GENERATION
Next, we brainstorm and illustrate technical solutions that eliminate one or more elements in conflicting claims.
CONCEPT REFINEMENT
Then, we down-select concepts and implement refinements to address size, cost, reliability, and other criteria.
LEGAL REVIEW
We then present and discuss the refined concepts with your legal counsel to obtain an opinion of infringement and/or patentability.
