INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SERVICES

Avidity IP helps SMEs in engineering and manufacturing across the UK protect and maximise their intellectual property, turning innovation into a commercial asset rather than something that sits on a shelf. Whether you need a patent drafted and filed, a trade mark protected in the UK or worldwide, or a wider IP strategy to identify risks and opportunities, Avidity IP delivers clear, practical support without blinding you with jargon.

The team also offers fractional IP support for SMEs without an in-house IP function, acting as an outsourced IP team, and manages post-grant work such as renewals, validations, recordals and ownership changes. We believe that well-managed IP strengthens funding rounds, exits and due diligence, and helps businesses avoid costly mistakes around ownership, infringement or missed filing deadlines.

Avidity IP’s patent attorneys, trade mark attorneys and paralegals work as one team, combining deep sector experience with an approachable style.

HOW CAN WE HELP?

What Is IP & Why It Matters

Intellectual property covers the ideas, inventions, brands and designs that make your business valuable, protecting it early means you don't risk losing rights to something a competitor could otherwise copy or claim.

Patents, Trade Marks & Designs

Patents, trade marks and designs each protect a different part of your business, from inventions to branding to product appearance, so knowing which applies to you is the first step to protecting it.

Protect What is Already in Place

Many engineering and manufacturing SMEs hold valuable intellectual property without even realising it. Our expert team at AVIDITY IP helps you to identify and secure the right protection that saves future headaches.
