ITS TIME TO GET TO WORK INNOVATING – BUT YOU NEED HELP

GInI has taught you all about Innovation. Now it’s time for your organization to get out and do Innovation!

However, you are well aware that many innovation efforts – when tackled alone – do end up failing.

You understand, for this reason, that it is best for your organization to not go this journey alone… but rather for it to come alongside a reliable partner who can walk this journey with you – one having extensive real-world experience conceiving, defining, developing, validating, and scaling major new innovations – as well as the scalable capacity to do so on your organization’s behalf.

THE GINI-SAGACIOUS IP PARTNERSHIP

GInI has partnered with the global IP Research Service firm Sagacious IP to provide GInI’s Corporate and Council Members with free and discounted access to IP research services and IP consultations.

Under this partnership, current GInI Council Members benefit from the following:

1. An unlimited number of asynchronous IP queries answered each year – using Sagacious IP’s VIP Platform.
2. Up to five (5) hours of free IP Consultation directly with a live Sagacious IP Consultant (connected virtually) each and every quarter. That’s 20 hours of free IP Consultation each and every year.
4. All additional IP services, such as, for example, patent landscape studies, freedom-to-operate opinion letters, patent filings, and so on – provided at a 5% discount off Sagacious IP’s normal prices.

This is an exclusive arrangement available only to GInI’s Council Members... not available anywhere else.

Take advantage of this freely as an important part of your membership in GInI. GInI values its members.
