PatentAct explains why the use of patentrenewal.com helps clients make better renewal decisions.

THE CHALLENGE

Client focus

Current patent renewal platforms do not fit the requirements of SMEs and Large Enterprises needing a convenient system to instruct the renewal, or not, of patents.

Overview

Business units of a corporation get a tool to ensure that the decision of whether to renew a patent or not is in alignment with all the stakeholders of the patent.

Scalability

Partnering with patentrenewal.com.
