Ideas Into Profit will undertake a desk top’ novelty search on your behalf. This search will include a basic patent search as well as a general commercial search. We cannot guarantee that this search is absolutely exhaustive but it will give a good indication of novelty and allow you to decide on whether to look for grant funding (your idea must be novel to qualify for most grant funding schemes) and to take a look at the market opportunities.
Undertaking a novelty search at this early stage can also help you decide whether your idea is worth pursuing. Or, if our search reveals that there are potential patent conflicts, it will help you to understand what you can do to avoid ‘Intellectual Property’ conflict and objection.
