State-of-the-art analysis
Do you need a current analysis? Who are the players in your sector? What are the trends? What are the emerging technologies?

Thanks to TKM, you finally have a simple, fast and effective solution! Get a complete overview of your environment at any given moment: emerging technologies, main competitors, potential partners…
Innovate
Most often, innovating means taking a step to the side, breaking away from the prevailing patterns of thinking in a team, company or sector. Long-established, robust creativity methods (such as TRIZ, or more recent ones like CK) showed very early on the value of technological resourcing (or of taking stock of the current state of the art) to nourish and « augment » a creativity process: imagining radically innovative new solutions, solving technical problems deemed unsolvable, getting around a really troublesome competitor’s patent, and so on.
Through its activities and services, TKM has also become an operator of enhanced creativity for your teams. This means carrying out assessments, technology scouting, research into industrial examples, and even running workshops to find innovative solutions to complex problems.
Optimize your industrial property strategy
Check your freedom to operate, carry out a prior art search, monitor your patents once filed and make sure they retain their strategic value over time, decipher your competitors’ filing strategy, get around blocking patents… TKM can help you optimize and enhance your patent strategy.
