Main Services:
Filing strategy for patent protection with high flexibility and maximum deferral of cost, permitting freedom to adapt the patent scope as the technology evolves and as visibility of commercial significance increases, as well as optimising patent term. An initial patent application in a low-cost territory such as Luxemburg or the UK establishes a robust priority date at a minimal cost. A follow-on PCT patent application can capture refinements to the initial filing and establish wide territorial protection. The PCT application can mature into a European patent application affording patent protection in Switzerland.
An initial European patent application affords patent protection in Switzerland and elsewhere. Follow-on filings in other territories can be deferred to permit protection in further territories at a later stage. Robust protection in Switzerland is achieved with a view toward rapid enforcement opportunities.
An international design registration including designation of Switzerland affords design protection in Switzerland. Ease of protection in further territories – including the EU – can be enabled in the same international design registration. Design protection in Switzerland is achieved cost efficiently in combination with protection elsewhere.
