Start-Ups

Every founder starts with an idea

Turning an idea into a thriving business demands dedication and strategic planning, combined with passion and insight. As a successful entrepreneur, crafting a robust business plan is imperative to attract top talent, cultivate clients, and to protect the intrinsic competitive advantage resulting from your innovation.

Protecting and leveraging intellectual property (IP) is key to business success. Creating an effective IP strategy is vital, alongside engaging expert legal advisors capable of guiding and supporting you and your company’s journey from inception to fruition.

Navigating the complex IP landscape can be challenging for entrepreneurs, including the timing and nature of protection, the global landscape of IP rights, and the rightful ownership of any resulting rights. Collaborating with expert attorneys proficient not only in IP law but also in commercial and technological nuances is essential.

How we can help

We can advise on the scope of applications, avoiding protection that is too narrow, and securing commercially relevant rights. As your company scales, we can support the team through each stage of growth, whatever the complexity or jurisdiction.

We can work with you to arrange and file applications in the UK and abroad. The objections raised by Patent Offices can seem daunting, but we will be there to advise and secure the patent protection you need. We will also be there to advise on peripheral issues, such as inventorship and ownership, as well as provide more general strategic IP advice.

In our team, we have attorneys who are experienced in working with start-ups and scale-ups, who are trusted to effectively work as part of the company’s management team.
