このPCT出願のおかげで、投資家に安心感を提供して、最初の資金調達を実現することができました。当社のようなスタートアップ企業にとっては、ターゲット市場を決定する前に国際出願を行って得られる時間的猶予は、国際出願に要する費用を考慮しても、とても有益です。

この期間に、研究開発部門を立ち上げることができただけでなく、特に国際調査報告のおかげで、市場における当社発明の特許性の評価を行うことができました。これにより、十分な情報に基づいて、国内段階に関する決定を行うことができました。

クリーンテクノロジーの世界市場は急拡大しており、この分野におけるイノベーションには高い需要があります。当社がPCT国際出願を行った理由は、
  • 水の再生利用の分野における当社技術について国際的な保護を獲得して、プロトタイプの最終バージョンの完成前に類似品の出願を阻止するとともに、
  • 当社のイノベーションと、企業自体に付加価値を与え、
  • 将来の投資家に信頼感を提供するためです。
