Product Concept Designer (3D Industrial Design + Ip To A Production Solution)
CurrentWhy should your firm consider adding-value through registered 'Intellectual Property' (IP)? A protected design (ie: Registered Design, Design Patent or a Trade-mark) can help protect your firm & markets from 'competitor infringements/copying' (provided your firm takes action against any infringements) & help to develop your firm's brand-values & market share. Ownership of IP also allows you to safely proceed to production (without fear of accidental IP infringements) or to consider licensing your design's registered IP to other firms for manufacture, in order to access larger markets & revenue growth opportunities. Hence, ownership of registered IP can be a valuable business asset & keep you from accidental infringements of other firms' registered IP!For example, the compact 'Tamper-Resistant+Tamper-Indicating RFID Security Product' (3D-Printed prototype & 3D-CAD images below) can be manufactured &/or be licensed to 'Original Equipment Manufacturers' (OEMs) because the granting of a patent (GB2531829), confirmed that the product's original design/'technical effect', meets the 'originality' requirements for a design-patent. It is worth saying that having a patent does not imply that it is the best/only design solution, only that it is original (& does not infringe any other firms' registered IP) therefore, it can proceed to production & sale.
