IP Audits

Protecting your innovation through strategic IP solutions

IP audit for commercial success #

We conduct intellectual property audits across a range of sectors and specialisms, helping to identify protectable ideas that will add value to your business.

The end result is a thorough understanding of your assets, and an ongoing strategy for building on and adding to them – an essential tool for growth and commercial success.

“An intellectual property audit helps you to identify the intellectual assets you already have, and to put in place an intellectual property strategy for the future.”

 -Dr Russell Thom, Managing Director, Patents
