About us

inovia is one of the largest foreign filing providers in the world. Over 1000 companies, law firms and universities have used our online platform, inovia.com, to reduce the cost and complexity of their PCT national stage entry, European patent validation and patent translation work.

Our model is simple: we combine technology and a global network of foreign associates to create value for our clients.

Our history

Things are changing in IP, especially when it comes to foreign filing. The growing expense and complexity of foreign filing is driving the industry to a new and innovative approach – one that can deliver increased efficiency and significant cost savings.

inovia has been at the forefront of this change. We were founded in 2002 by a patent attorney who experienced firsthand the expensive and time-consuming tasks of entering the PCT national phase, validating European patents and securing high-quality patent translations.

This led to the creation of our global instruction platform, inovia.com, which today has served over 1000 clients.

Our expertise

inovia is run by a unique group of people who are passionate about IP and the global trends affecting how applicants build and manage their IP portfolios. Like you, we understand IP is a critical asset to your business.

Our patented technology is recognized amongst WIPO's most notable inventions and according to Managing IP magazine, we now handle the national phase entry of more PCT applications than virtually any patent firm in the world.

In fact, we've filed more than 10,000 patent applications in the last two years alone!
