Expected duration: 1 - 2 weeks I’m currently in the process of building a new prototype (it is a type of a bicycle smart trainer that will allow users to connect to the likes of Zwift). I’m at a point where I’m getting interest from larger corporates, and as a result I’d like to ensure that I protect my prototype.
I’ve previously discussed with my usual patent attorney, but they’ve suggested a price of c £7k to get this done.
Given this is a new idea, I’m hoping that before we spend thousands of £s, that we rather file an application that is good enough to hold its own, and then we can ‘perfect’ it over the upcoming months. I really need a date that takes precedent so that I can kick off the conversations with the corporates.
I appreciate that the detail provided needs to be good enough to hold its own, but also not wanting to throw the kitchen sink at it just yet.
I appreciate the above is bit 'woolly', but happy to discuss directly.
