Join RWS for this very special webinar on patent searching best practices where we outline how to avoid the most common pitfalls in patent searching. In this presentation, we will cover:
- Which factors matter most in a patent search,
- Where the most common problems arise,
- What role “people” play in the patent search,
- What advantage systems and processes have on patent search,
- The effect technology has on the effectiveness of your results, and more.
Patent searches are always carried out for a very specific reason and it is important that they are done right the first time. With over a 100 years of search experience between the speakers in this webinar, if you have ever had a patent search fail to produce the results you were looking for, you won’t want to miss this webinar.

In 2017 RWS acquired US based Article One Partners, LLC (“AOP”), a cutting-edge IP information business
“AOP’s online crowdsourcing platform links its clients to a community of over 42,000 researchers, across more than 170 countries, to provide them with access to IP intelligence that informs their litigation, licensing, patent enforcement and IP acquisition strategy decisions. The platform is able to match AOP’s clients’ requirements with researchers in the right technical field and geography. AOP has a track record of delivering critical litigation citations to its strong client base, which includes blue chip corporations such as Philips.
The acquisition will be highly complementary to RWS’s existing Patent Information business and PatBase offering, whilst reinforcing the Group’s focus on providing innovative technology solutions to its clients”
