Bernstein has joined forces with ESA BIC Bavaria, Werk1 and BlOCKROCKET and won't stop there.
The startup world is busy! According to Forbes, intellectual property is one of the most important topics a startup deals with. As a founder of an early-stage venture, one's thoughts probably circle around developing your product or service, building a sustainable brand from scratch or raising capital. Thinking about the startup’s intellectual property, in contrast, could feel time-consuming and expensive. However, a startup can gain immense competitive advantage by protecting its intellectual property, specifically during the initial stages and before disclosing any information to third parties such as venture capitalists. Failing to do so may not only lead to missed fundraising opportunities and immense costs but also potential business closure down the road.
Oddly enough, although a startup’s intellectual property is its most valuable asset, many independent accelerators hosting, supporting and investing in these early-stage startups do not offer support for its protection, which creates a gap between the startup’s needs and accelerator’s offerings.
This is where Bernstein steps in. The company developed a white-label edition of its web app, specifically designed for accelerators as an additional service to their residents. While they support highly innovative teams at an early stage, Bernstein empowers them to secure the progress of their work during the time of the program and allows for the protection of their IP rights. Bernstein also aims to become the first point of contact for all things IP related by offering educational presentations, holding regular Q&A sessions as well as offering direct support whenever needed.
No matter if in areas like Robotics, MedTech, Mobility, Automotive, Aerospace, Artificial Intelligence, BioTech, Cosmetics, Designs, ... Bernstein provides accelerating startups around the world with the peace of mind needed to focus on building their business.
