Tired of unreliable patent budgets?

Fixed prices on patents

Your challenge
When your company wishes to achieve patent protection it is difficult to predict how smooth the patenting process will run in each country, and how expensive the patent will be in the end.

This uncertainty in the budget is a problem in most companies’ economy, and very often the uncertainty may be a drag in the patenting process. Too much focus on the varying costs during the process takes away focus from the essence - namely to achieve the necessary protection and the benefits this protection gives you in the market.

Our solution
Plougmann & Vingtoft have now taken care of this uncertainty with a new initiative in the patenting world. As a supplement to the fixed price for the international phase in the patenting process, we offer you the opportunity for fixed prices in the succeeding national patenting processes - from filing of the national patent application till grant of the patent. This way you can make a precise budget, keep focus on the essence and avoid spending time on justifying and explaining an exceeded budget.

We have made comprehensive analyses of the average patenting costs, and on the basis of these we can shoulder the uncertainty in the budget and offer you fixed prices. Based on a number of circumstances we calculate a fixed price in each case, and the price is then distributed across a certain number of months.

We calculate the offer based on:
• The result of the international PCT phase
• The estimated necessary communication between your company and us
• The strategy for processing of the patent application and the number of claims
• Our knowledge on patent practice and statistical data
• The number of patents you wish processed in a fixed price agreement

Your gain
With a fixed price you avoid the risk of exceeding your budget. This way you can focus on the essence. You still get individual consultancy of the highest quality. You merely get it at a fixed price.
