ABOUT US
eNitiatives was founded by Reuven Marko. An entrepreneur, and a veteran of the Silicon Valley and Israeli startup scenes, 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 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.
