Defensive Publishing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Defensive publishing is an innovative and cost-effective method of strategically protecting intellectual property by deliberately publishing innovations into the public domain. Placing inventions as “Prior Art” ensures that they are recognized and cited by patent examiners, minimizing unnecessary risks and strengthening competitive position. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does defensive publishing work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Defensive publishing involves creating a technical disclosure that describes in detail how an innovation or technology works. This disclosure is archived in a publicly accessible database that is regularly used by patent offices and technical experts around the world. This legally registers the technology as prior art, which prevents future patent applications by other parties. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
