"The event provided a great overview of the power and usefulness of the searching strategy and software used by Madderns.
Anything that can provide better coverage of the available patent information and reliable output is of great value to any innovative business that relies on the protection of IP rights"

Dr Stephen Rodda, Business Development Manager (Bio Innovation SA)


"Madderns now clearly have a powerful new tool kit that makes patent information more visual, more accessible, and more useful to the lay person.
With the nearly exponential growth in the complexity and volume of patent information that we are now seeing, tools like these will become a necessity rather than a luxury even for patent specialists."

Dr Roger Voyle, Investment Manager (Terra Rossa Capital)
