How we can help

It is often thought that software cannot be patented, but in fact innovations can be patented if they present some kind of novel technical advance.  We are also familiar with legal systems in different jurisdictions, in particular the USA, which means we can offer pragmatic advice for startups and scaleups which have global ambitions.

Our pragmatic guidance on protection strategies takes a holistic viewpoint, advocating a hybrid approach with a custom blend of IP rights including patent, trade secret and copyright protection

We can advise on various technical and business areas, including:

  • AI
  • Information technology
  • Medical imaging
  • Security imaging systems
  • Computer networking
  • Speech recognition
  • Fintech
  • Cybersecurity
  • Consumer apps
  • Social media

“Scintilla have been extremely useful for us, helping to understand the value of our IP in its wider view. They have undertaken an IP Audit investigating our possibilities for patents and to give us confidence that we do not violate existing patents. It also comes with valuable recommendations about working practices with external organisations, the value of Design rights and Trade Marks as part of our IP portfolio.”
