About Initial Patent Consulting
The
people behind
IP Consulting are a group of successful entrepreneurs who want to help
new entrepreneurs in their initial steps towards the world of technological and
business development. We are experienced
entrepreneurs who understand the needs of entrepreneurs who are making their
first steps in the fascinating world of
entrepreneurship.
One
of the basic needs of new entrepreneurs is to protect their novel idea(s), but
often find it extremely expensive when trying to get intellectual property
protection services.
Not
everybody is aware of an inexpensive option to apply for a patent, especially,
but not only, for young entrepreneurs. An application for a Provisional Patent in the USA enables you
to apply for a patent and obtain an early date, without having to mortgage your
house, as many tend to think. A Provisional Patent application secures your novel idea(s)
and keeps it concealed for (at least) 12 months. thereby, it provides you with enough time to asses the business
value of your invention, do a feasibility study and get investments in.
We are here to meet the
need of new entrepreneurs as well as on going business to meet you intellectual
property related needs, at a very modest price:
IP Consulting can examine
the validity of your idea via its
Consulting services,
IP Consulting can do a thorough patent search for you via its
Patent Search
services, and
IP Consulting can draft your
Patent application, proximal to a full application level (note that under the law in Israel, only permitted
patent attorneys may draft and file patent applications in Israel or abroad), via its
Patent Application
services.
Introduction
We often find ourselves playing with a new and exciting idea which also
possesses a good business opportunity, but we let it fade away due to the
expected high expense of applying for a patent. But many of us are not aware
of a very inexpensive option of submitting a
Provisional Application in the USA (fees of
$110
for small entities,
as of October, 2008). This procedure secures your novel idea, keeps it
concealed for
at least 12 months and gives you enough time to get investments
in, as well as do a feasibility study.
In 1995, the US Patent Office has introduced some significant changes to the
rules concerning patents:
-
Granted
patents expire 20 years after filing, rather than 17 years after being
allowed.
-
They
introduced the notion of a Provisional Application:
-
Anyone can
apply.
-
You get a
priority date secured.
-
You get an
application number.
-
You get the right to claim "patent pending".
-
Your
application is concealed for at least 12 full months. Thus, you have 12 months to "test the water":
-
It carries a very small application fee: $110 for a small entity
(typically, entities with less than 500 employees) and $220 for large entities (as of October, 2008).
-
A patent application is kept undisclosed for 18 months from the filing date,
assuming a full application is filed within 12 month. If not filed - the
Provisional Application remains unpublished (and hence, optionally, can be
filed again (with a new filing date).
Our Mission
We are here to
provide you with all your intellectual property needs. In particular, we put
special emphasize on leading new entrepreneurs through their first steps in the
journey of building and protecting their intellectual property in an inexpensive
and safe way. We accompany them through
the full journey, until a patent is issued, as
well as provide them with all other intellectual properties related services
as needed.
There are many options and ways to go about how, when and where to apply for
a patent. We will explore your special business needs together with you, and
find the best avenue for your venture.
But if your product is intended to be produced or marketed in the USA and/or
worldwide, we often recommend to start with a US Provisional Patent
Application:
We can help the self-contained inventor in the preparation of the
application.
-
But, you should be careful not to file an application that might not
provide you with the needed protection, in the future, while you delude
yourself to believe it will.
-
This is
where IP Consulting comes in.
