1. When researching and developing new products or technologies, it is necessary to make a detailed investigation before this. By consulting the patent database and referring to patent literature or related technical documents, we can roughly judge whether our innovation has similar patents, so as to avoid infringement. The advantage of detailed investigation is that you can know in advance whether competitors have passed the relevant patent certification, so as to adjust the research and development direction in time and avoid a series of losses caused by patent conflicts with others.
2. Apply for patent protection as soon as possible. Through investigation, if you have not applied for such a patent for the time being, in order to monopolize the innovative achievements in the market, you can first make your own technology or innovative methods public by applying for a patent to avoid the risk of infringement. When submitting an application, you should ensure that the innovative content is described in detail and presented accurately, and don't disclose too many technical details in the patent application.
3. By cooperating with other innovators to understand each other's technological progress, it will help to reduce repetitive research and development work, reduce the probability of patent infringement, and improve their own innovation ability and patent awareness.
4. You can hire a patent lawyer or find a professional institution to conduct patent infringement risk assessment in advance. The content of evaluation should also be evaluated from the legal environment, laws and regulations. To predict the possibility of patent infringement risk and the degree of influence after technology infringement. Experienced lawyers can give advice from a professional perspective and formulate appropriate strategies.
5. After inquiry or investigation, it is found that one's own product or technology may infringe the patent right of others. Through the licensing agreement with the patentee, legal authorization is obtained to avoid the occurrence of infringement disputes. The license agreement is a cooperation agreement reached by both parties, and the rights and responsibilities of both parties need to be clearly defined in the agreement.
6. When developing new products or technologies, the personnel of the project team need to go through relevant investigations and reduce them to a minimum. Without holding a press conference or appraisal meeting in any form, the relevant personnel require them to undertake the obligation of confidentiality, which can reduce the probability that their own patents are applied by competitors first.
