Clarivate Unveils Derwent Patent Monitor
In a significant move for the intellectual property landscape, Clarivate Plc has launched the
Derwent Patent Monitor, an innovative solution aimed at revolutionizing how patent reviews are conducted in research and development (R&D). This cutting-edge tool incorporates artificial intelligence to streamline the patent review process, helping teams make faster and more informed decisions regarding patentability and freedom to operate (FTO).
Addressing Challenges in IP Management
Intellectual property leaders often face hurdles when it comes to fostering collaboration with R&D teams, especially in filing robust patents while minimizing the risk of infringement. According to Shandon Quinn, Vice President of Patent Intelligence at Clarivate, existing processes routinely become bogged down by siloed teams and various tools that do not communicate effectively. The Derwent Patent Monitor was specifically designed to combat these challenges by integrating flexible collaboration and review workflows powered by unique Derwent patent data and AI insights.
The platform aims to bridge the communication gaps between patent professionals and R&D, ensuring that teams can quickly identify potential risks and take timely action. By enabling a more connected workflow, it greatly enhances the efficiency of critical IP decisions pertaining to FTO assessments, opposition evaluations, and patent filings.
