Why patents are a worthwhile investment
If you don’t have patent protection, imitators can steal your idea. A patent gives you control over who can use your idea, and this strengthens your market position.
- External impact: A patent highlights your company’s innovative strength and shows the value of your product.
- Security: Your invention remains your exclusive property—you decide who can use your innovation.
- Competitive advantage: Competitors have to switch to inferior or more expensive alternatives, redesign their product, or take a risk.
- Increase in value: Protected innovations increase the value of your company and make it more attractive to investors.
Patent protection is not just a safeguard—it strengthens your company in the long run and creates new opportunities for growth and success.
