With support from PROvendis, the IFAS has already successfully patented 14 inventions. When it concerns protection and commercialization of our developments, PROvendis is always the first contact we talk to.
The special commitment of PROvendis employees not only shows itself in securing inventions through patent protection. In addition, we have especially benefited from their work in commercializing our patents.
