Our Process

At Blueshift IP, we work collaboratively with you to develop patent portfolios that are aligned with and support your business goals. We begin the collaboration by discussing with you your business objectives, understanding how you believe patents will further those objectives, and then selecting, filing, and prosecuting patents that further the goals we’ve identified. 

This process requires us to learn about your technology in depth and your future technology development plans in the context of the competitive market in which your business operates. This way, we can obtain patents that protect your technology today and tomorrow, and enable your patents to be used offensively as necessary.

We use our combination of technological and legal expertise to craft and execute patent protection strategies that maximize the strength and value of your patent portfolio. Through this process, we educate you about the patent process and empower you to play an active role in creating intellectual property protection for your innovative technologies.

Our services provide the following benefits to your company:

• Patents that protect your core technology against your competitors
• Patents that are broad enough to protect your future technology
• Patents that maximize value for events, such as financing, acquisition, IP, and licensing
• Patents that are written to provide maximum defense against challenges by competitors
• Patents that you can use defensively against competitors who attempt to enforce their patents against your company
• An understanding of what to patent – and what not to patent – in order to maximize your return on investment
• Prioritization among your many options and innovations to cover in order to focus your investment on your company’s most vital innovations
• Structured communication of our jointly-evolved IP strategy to outside stakeholders, such as investors, potential acquirers, and partners, so that everyone understands the value of your patent portfolio
• Acquainting you and your employees with the IP process so that your engineering and business teams make maximum contributions to the company’s vital IP assets and so that valuable patent assets are not left on the table
• A patent strategy that evolves with your evolving business goals over time
