IP Advisory Network
Connecting patent-ready researchers
with specialist IP attorneys.
We identify researchers and founders publishing patent-worthy work and match them with a specialist patent attorney in their technology area — at no cost to the researcher.
How it works
We identify your work
We monitor research publications, arXiv, PubMed, and SBIR databases for patent-worthy work with an active filing window.
We match you to a specialist
We identify a patent attorney in our network who specialises in your specific technology area and CPC classification.
The attorney reaches out
The attorney reviews your work and contacts you directly with an IP assessment. No obligation. No cost to you.
Who we work with
University Researchers
Publishing in technology areas with active commercial interest and patent filing windows.
SBIR Grant Recipients
Federally-funded researchers developing commercially-viable technology ready for IP protection.
Startup Founders
Early-stage companies building in deep tech, biotech, clean energy, or software-defined hardware.
First-Time Filers
Inventors who have never navigated the patent process and need specialist guidance before the window closes.
