Intellectual Property

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We partner with tech innovators and businesses, and education and research institutions, to help them extend their IP rights internationally. Through our unique collaboration model, we can protect and commercialise IP portfolios for the Chinese and Asian markets that may otherwise have remained unexploited.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Working with one of China’s leading IP groups, we make protecting and managing your IP and technology in China easier, more affordable, and more effective.

Many companies own patents in China, but they don’t necessarily commercialise them. Others may not know where to start and may be put off by not knowing the costs involved. Crayfish^® can help you better protect and utilise your IP rights in China.

Through a unique partnership facility only available through Crayfish^®, we will cover your costs for filing and maintaining your new patents in China but most importantly, we proactively identify China-based licensing opportunities. For those looking at tech commercialisation for existing IP, we can help you navigate the process, and where relevant we can access IP-focussed investment capital and acquisitions in and out of China. Additionally, we can advise on valuations for fundraising, partnering, monetisation, and asset transfer.

We share the risks and rewards with you to help you succeed.

IP Rights Protection & Licensing

We help democratise China IP protection and commercialisation for smaller technology firms through a long-term relationship with our reputable Chinese partner, where not only do the costs of filing and maintaining patents in China get covered, but their Chinese patents get a better chance to be monetised through a more proactive and systematic promotion to Chinese entrepreneurs, businesses, and investors.

Tech Transfer Partnership Package

Designed with university tech transfer offices and research institutes in mind, our technology transfer partnership model will help to transform inventions and scientific outcomes into new products, solutions, and services in the Chinese market. This will typically include the licensing of IP, sharing of know-how, and provision of expert consultancy.
