Where IP Matters®
eNitiatives IP
Founded in 1999 with an aim to help startup companies develop and secure their Intellectual Property (IP) rights. With a team of experienced and innovative professionals, eNitiatives IP is the go-to source for developing and managing the IP assets of startup companies.
ABOUT US
eNitiatives IP was founded by Reuven Marko, a veteran of the Silicon Valley and Israeli startup scenes, as well as being himself an entrepreneur. Reuven noticed that the process of turning unique know how into valuable, tangible assets wasn’t being given the attention it deserved.
The patent process is not a one-size-fits-all, and startups required a different outlook than enterprise giants, which most firms service. That’s why at eNitiatives IP we took a conscious decision to work exclusively with startups. Through our own personal experience, we know what it takes from you to succeed, and we are here to help you on your journey. Like you, we are entrepreneurs.
Our partners didn’t just sit on the sidelines of deals. We personally raised funds. We developed products. We did business development, sales, and marketing. We know what it’s like to be in your shoes, because we were there. It’s that sort of deep, intimate insight which allows us to provide you with a service unmatched.
SERVICES
We assist startups of all stages to build strong, comprehensive and strategic Intellectual Property (IP) Portfolios, with an aim of increasing valuation while reducing dramatically the time inventors are required to spend on development of IP.
Our work has direct positive affect on M&As and IPOs. We have worked exclusively with startups for over 20 years, and bring a unique offering to the table which no other firm can match.
We offer a range of services tailored to meet your specific needs in the fields of patents, trademarks, and copyrights. From conducting thorough searches and drafting applications to providing strategic advice and managing prosecution, we are committed to maximizing the value and protection of your intellectual assets.
