PATANSWER

IPR Services Made in Germany

OUR VISION

DESKTOP INNOVATION

Today, many successful innovators work in large corporations that back huge research and development investments. Tomorrow, innovators will increasingly work in small entities with little capital. Strategic use of patents will reduce innovators' dependence.

GLOBAL IPR MARKETPLACE

Today, patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights are assets notoriously difficult to trade. Tomorrow, a global market place, transparency and low transaction costs will bring many more participants to the market and substantially increase liquidity of these assets.

OUR MISSION

LEAN INNOVATION

Directing innovators' efforts to success, ideally, needing no more than a desktop while leaving big investment to legacy "dinosaur companies" that seem anyhow doomed.

MANAGEMENT BY MARKET

Clever patent portfolio management: Dinosaur companies invest heavily in finding out about the value of their patents - and typically get it all wrong! We assist in finding the true value of your patent in the market.

PROFITABLE PATENTING

Strategic patenting. These days, the dinosaur companies invest a lot of money in patent protection that eventually goes to waste. This need not be. We provide strategic counsel aiming to maximize the return on your investment in patents.​

OUR CUSTOMERS

STARTUPS

PATANSWER was founded in 2012 with a single disruptive service product. The company had a hard time. Learning continues. Based on our experience as much as on working with numerous startup companies, if you are a founder or inventor in a startup, we have probably seen many of your problems before. In particular, we understand that your road to success is a tightrope. We offer service solutions taking account of a typical startup's financial situation.

SME

Prosperty is frequently based on innovation driven by a large number of family-owned global champions. Technological leadership requires strategic use of protective instruments: secret know-how as much as patented inventions. If you run an SME, not only do we understand frustration with bureaucracy that stifles growth. We use our industry experience to reduce the costs of your patents and trademarks. You'll soon see benefits on your balance sheet.

We assist with portfolio management, patent and trademark valuation and with implementing your employee invention administration.
