Patents

Protect your new products and processes in the UK and abroad. License your patents to create a revenue stream. Stop others from copying you. Sell your ideas. Raise finance on the basis of your patents. We have experience helping start-ups with cost-effective services. No charge for an initial consultation.
1. COPYING - Stop others from copying your invention/product.
2. BUSINESS ASSET - It's an asset to your business, which looks good for investors and banks, and when you come to sell.
3. LICENSING - You can allow others to make or sell your invention product and charge them royalties.
4. REDUCE YOUR CORPORATION TAX - The new "Patent Box" tax relief scheme from the government allows you to reduce your corporation tax liability to only 10% (from 20%) on the profits made from selling your patented invention/product.
5. PROVIDES IMMEDIATE PROTECTION - as soon as the patent application is lodged at the Patent Office you can talk about your invention.
6. MARKETING - Buyers and end-consumers like patented products.

Trademarks

2. BUSINESS ASSET - It's an asset to your business, which looks good for investors, banks and when you come to sell.
3. STRONGER - It's much stronger than relying on "passing-off" to stop others using the same or similar name or logo.

5. INDIVIDUALITY - It provides a good deal of assurance that your trademark is unique.
