Space Technology

The future of Space Technology

The opportunities to generate revenue from space technology are growing day by day. Services that improve on what’s gone before – cheaper, lighter, faster, clearer, enduring, more secure. In combination with new space-associated services and data not previously available at all, space technology is an exciting place to work. 

Space technology also presents opportunities for formerly terrestrial suppliers and innovators to branch out. The extreme and inaccessible nature of the space and launch environments often means Earth-bound technologies require modification. For example, to engineer existing products for strength, longevity and stability. 

We’re as excited as anyone to see where space tech leads us all in years to come, surely well beyond what we can imagine now.

Space Technology and Intellectual Property

In general the threshold for choosing to seek IP protection should rightly be meaningful; the commercial rationale should be considered and clear. Space technology is no different in this respect, particularly where IP supports an investment case. We know that. Developing lean, valuable, and business-relevant IP portfolios for our clients is what we’re about. We’re here to understand and support your business, business plan and aspirations, not just your IP function.

We’re also in the business of innovation ourselves. We don’t do IP like others. Like space technology operators, we have an eye on the complete chain of stakeholders, actual and potential, for our work. In doing so, we develop innovative and flexible ways of working, strategies, and IP outputs that go beyond the norm. This gives a level of flexibility that enables us to deliver definite commercial value. We’ve worked hard on the ways we work and we’re proud of our people who live them.
