A patent grants exclusive rights to make, use, and sell the patented invention for a limited time, allowing the owner to license or sell the patent for royalties, which increases the value and attractiveness of the invention to investors and partners, providing a competitive advantage in the market.
To be eligible for patent protection, an invention must be novel, non-obvious, and have a practical application. Patentable inventions include machines, articles of manufacture, compositions of matter, and processes or methods.
The time it takes to obtain a patent varies depending on the jurisdiction and the complexity of the invention. In India, the average processing time for a patent application is around 3-5 years.
The costs associated with obtaining a patent include official filing fees, attorney fees, and potential costs for conducting prior art searches, responding to office actions, and maintaining the patent once granted. The exact costs vary depending on the jurisdiction and the complexity of the application.
A prior art search involves searching for existing patents, published patent applications, and other publicly available information related to your invention. This helps determine if your invention is novel and non-obvious compared to what is already known. You can conduct a preliminary search using online patent databases or hire a professional search firm to conduct a more comprehensive search.
