{{content}} In order to keep pace with the development of technologies and their innovative applications, a systematic know how management is necessary.

This includes the classification and documentation of the existing technical skills and their their degree of maturity for the evaluation of future needs in short and long term aspects. Some skills can be acquired by focused recruiting of specialists and some needs can be fulfilled by systematic training and coaching of your staff.

The existing know how on relevant processes, procedures and technical developments, which are essential for the quality of your products needs to be categorized and documented in order to  maintain the know how in your company. This also prevents the potential loss of core competencies, when people are leaving the company.

To secure your products, the systematic protection of the core technologies is necessary. Not always the publication of your know how by filing patents is the best means to protect your products. Therefore, we support you to develop a specific patent strategy for your company and products and to implement this strategy in your processes.
