Patent Assistance

Providing technical assistance during the patenting process. Translating a product design into intellectual property claims requires a broad perspective of design function and the impact that different manufacturing processes have on these functions. InvenGen can assist in bringing this perspective and bridging the communication gap which sometimes exists between attorneys and inventors by functionally describing products or process. Not only will the functional diagrams depict the relationships of the design elements and help in communicating the design, it will also give excellent insight into opportunities to broaden claims. With InvenGen's assistance during the patent process;

• You can quickly access technical assistance from subject matter experts ready to help solve technical product & process challenges that come up during the patent application writing process
• Your technical managers can temporarily expand their engineering capability without long term hiring commitments
• This assistance can take the form of writing reports, designing & conducting protocols, making calculations and measurements, creating drawings, designs, performing testing & test analysis, use of DOE for process parameter determination, and product & process validations
• You can gain insight into potential vulnerabilities of your design to design-around methods

Also, through InvenGen's affiliates, full patenting services, including patent searches, filing, and patent drawing, are available at a significant discount.
