Provisional Patent Application
Overview
The first step - submitting a provisional patent application
An Australian provisional patent application is lodged at IP Australia and is the normal first step in obtaining one or more patents anywhere in the world.
Once a provisional patent application has been filed, you may disclose your idea to interested parties, although we would recommend initially that you make such disclosures in confidence.
The Baxter IP difference
Both Chris & John Baxter have been involved in managing large intellectual property portfolios of hundreds of overseas patents and patent applications and have acquired, through experience, an intimate understanding of how to prepare patent applications that:
- Are tailored for examination in the United States and Europe, and
- Are geared towards maximising profits that can be extracted out of IP licensing and sale agreements.
