Making Intellectual Property profitable

Innovation and entrepreneurship both need a good intellectual property strategy. You can significantly stimulate growth by carefully mapping the cornerstones of your innovation that you ought to protect, and, of course, the ones that you had better not disclose. The balance between the two is key for any business.

We make intellectual property understandable and applicable

IP strategy is essential for innovation and entrepreneurship, it is a tool to innovate safely and that also allows you to get even more value from your own innovation and therefore also your entrepreneurship.

for Inquirendi, innovation and entrepreneurship cannot be developed without paying attention to your own IP strategy. It not only helps to secure your own roadmap, but also helps you to ensure that you do not run risks by infringing on third-party innovations.

Specifically for young, agile companies such as startups and scaleups, Inquirendi founded its sister company Scalendi in 2025. Scalendi guides young, agile companies (speedboat companies) that grow quickly and still want to develop a good IP strategy with limited resources.

Patents as inspiration

A patent database is filled with solutions for problems and inspiration for your development and/or design process. Inquirendi diggs in these databases to give you an overview of your IP situation (competition, trends,...) Not just a list of the number of patents, but a content analysis and a first check of patentability and freedom to operate. It will give you a status of risks and opportunities.

Protection that pays off

You have a great idea, and you want to protect it efficiently. Inquirendi is there to think along with you. Securing your innovation costs money, but it also pays off if you do it right. Inquirendi always uses these 3 angles: scalability, tax optimization and anti-counterfeiting. This way, dealing with IP is not a cost but an investment that will pay off in the future.

Moreover, Inquirendi has its own unique Lean Patent Canvas to make your idea 10 times stronger, with a well-founded IP strategy plan as a bonus.

Patent versus Business model

“A patent is a Grant, but inventorship is a Right. The strength of a patent doesn't come from its claims, it comes from the invention.”

Kalyan C. Kankanala

The language of IP

Inquirendi acts as a sounding board, an interpreter, speaking both the language of innovation and of intellectual property. Inquirendi will help you understand IP activities and translate them to your own business context.

Inquirendi does not take the place of an IP agency, but acts as an intermediary so that you can establish an efficient collaboration leading to an adequate and profitable protection for your company. We help you with the interpretation of IP topics so that you fully understand the consequences and / or opportunities for your business. Priority in any decision is its business value.

“I don't care that they stole my idea, I care that they don't have any of their own.”

Collaborating

Collaborating and agreeing on intellectual property is not easy. To make this accessible and understandable, Inquirendi has developed its own IP Collaboration Awareness workshop. During this workshop, we will demonstrate the pain points by means of a role-play and show you how to draw up a balanced agreement, taking into account all partners, for both the development and successful commercialization of an innovative idea.

IP management

Inquirendi helps companies take their first steps toward patents and property rights and supports them as an (interim) IP manager. Inquirendi helps you identify IP opportunities, creates a roadmap (including a cost benefit analysis), establishes partnerships with IP agencies and assists you with your first patent applications. This way, you can maximize your return on IP investments.

Fast growing companies such as startups and scaleups who want to develop a good IP strategy with a limited IP budget can contact Scalendi. Here they will find specific IP services focused on a strategy to support scalability to the maximum.
