FTO / Clearance Search
An FTO search – How can it protect your products and expand your business horizons?
FTO search is conducted before launching a product or process in the market, with the intention of commercializing the concept. MCRPL can help in identifying the existing granted patents and/ or published patent publications, in order to avoid potential infringements.
Patent protection is based on regional or territorial rights, hence the FTO search is also jurisdiction specific. If a firm wants to bring a product or process in multiple regions, then the FTO search should cover all the intended jurisdictions of interest. MCRPL FTO search solution can help in making these critical decisions which help in devising your IP strategy, in turn leading to your product lifecycle development.
