In a world where so much power rests in huge companies (Tech Giants PLC), frightening aspects include their knowledge of us (as in the cartoon above) AND their ability to control our futures by claiming as much IP territory as possible. This colonisation of human knowledge includes anything and everything from human genetics to space technologies going far beyond the much publicised grab to own genetically modified crops - with the risk of poor farmers having to pay big tech to plant seeds for next year’s food.
If you want fast knowledge of how to protect and extend IP nothing is simpler or more powerful than the Oxford TRIZ processes. These astonishing, logical, and simple approaches help inventors and everyone else involved work effectively together to create stronger patents. This ensures that design and development teams, patent attorneys, management etc. can respond promptly to technology advances and competitor threats. The clear understanding TRIZ delivers at every stage assists the strategy and fast communication to protect and secure your best future. In our busy world the intangibility of IP and its long-term goals make it hard to prioritise but perilous to neglect.
Although many view Patent and IP development as notoriously tricky, in 10 hours the Oxford TRIZ Patent and IP Development online course brings teams up to speed and ready for action. Invest just 2 hours each day for one working week to learn the systematic TRIZ processes to strengthen, ring fence and extend your own IP territory and access your competitor’s IP (cleverly and ethically). Read on to find out more.

This true story of Engineer 'Guy' and a Patent Lawyer 'Patina' who met and married when Guy began implementing Oxford TRIZ and producing so many Patents that Patina was assigned to work with him.
Guy wanted to ask Patenta to go out with him, but he thought they lived too far apart to make it feasible – they were based 5 hours away from each other - so he applied TRIZ to the problem.
Read this article to find out how Guy found a logical solution to efficiently woo patina and how they went from colleagues to Husband and Wife!
