About Us
Cambridge Patents Limited (TPT) brings over two decades of expertise in providing comprehensive support to a diverse clientele, spanning from fledgling start-ups to established research and manufacturing giants. While our roots are planted in Cambridge, our reach extends globally, having successfully served clients across international borders. With specialist expertise in electronics, telecommunications, and beyond, we offer tailored solutions to meet the unique needs of each client.
Patents
Patents Protect your invention and stop third parties from making, selling, importing or otherwise using it without permission.
The process begins with filing an application at the United Kingdom Intellectual Property Office, which must include a description of the invention, relevant drawings, and claims defining its scope. Through an international convention, any foreign applications filed within the first year of your initial UK filing can claim the original British filing date, ensuring broader protection for your invention.
Trademarks
Cambridge Patents offers multiple ways to secure foreign Trade Mark protection and will recommend the best method for your needs. Filing a foreign application within six months of your UK application allows you to claim the UK filing date, ensuring an earlier effective filing date. You can apply directly to national authorities, though this can be costly and complex. Alternatively, there is a process which allows for an international application through the UK Patent Office, designating multiple countries and managing costs efficiently.
Design Rights
Cambridge Patents can help you stop others from copying your design and secure protection for up to 15 years from the date it was created. This protection ensures that your unique design remains exclusively yours, preventing unauthorized use or reproduction by third parties. Cambridge Patents offers expert guidance through the process, ensuring that your design is thoroughly protected under the relevant legal frameworks.
