The initial PerfectPatent™ Search at the beginning of The Inventor’s Journey™ indicated Joe’s invention had high potential for patenting. This finding boosted Joe’s confidence and fueled his desire to secure patent rights for his innovative invention, leading him to file a full non-provisional patent application through SHIINE® ENTERPRISE at the UK Patent Office, to secure UK rights.

Joe also got product development work done at SHIINE®. During the product development phase at step 3 of The Inventor’s Journey™, we explored potential designs, including one that ‘split’ the product into multiple parts. All design variations were included in the non-provisional patent application, ensuring Joe’s highest opportunity to secure a patent, both for the ‘multiple parts’ version, and for his initial favoured design, which was also included in the patent application.
