Assisted search at a partner location
The IPI also offers assisted searches together with partners at their locations. From there you, as a client are connected to the patent expert at the IPI via an online meeting solution. Despite this possibility, we recommend that you come to Bern for the assisted search. Your personal presence at the IPI enables us to search more efficiently.
