Today we are excited to announce a strategic partnership between enpact and Bernstein Technologies GmbH.
Enpact is a non-profit organization, which aims to strengthen economic relations between young entrepreneurs from the startup scenes of the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. Entering this partnership, Bernstein enables the founders within enpact’s Startup Mentoring program access to IP protection, for free.
Bernstein has set out to make intellectual property protection what it was meant to be: a means of promoting innovation, science, and art. Therefore, Bernstein is on a mission to make IP protection accessible to anyone, global, fast and digital.
The startup has partnered with several accelerators and co-working spaces around Germany (e.g. WERK1, ESA BIC Bavaria, and Two-Stay) and is now excited to partner with enpact, combining Bernstein’s goal of leveling the playing field of intellectual property with enpact’s mission to empower entrepreneurs globally.
“Having been a young startup ourselves, we know how difficult it is to compete on the global market, and the energy it takes to face the many threats coming in your direction. Bernstein’s promise is to be at the side of innovators and enable them to conveniently protect, manage and defend what they create. We are honored to contribute to enpact's programs that are nurturing hundreds of startups around the world.”
Marco Barulli, Co-founder and CEO of Bernstein Technologies GmbH
