Introduction of Sarap & Partners Patent Agency and patent attorneys

The Patent Agency Sarap and Partners was founded by Margus Sarap in 2008, after 15 years of work in the sphere of industrial property. At the end 2009, Sarap and Partners Patent Agency and Patent Agency NotaBene (former Tehnoloogiauuringute OÜ), founded at the end of 2007 by Mikk Putk and partners, merged. The goal of the merger of two patent agencies was a desire to provide to our clients an even more professional counselling in the filing and proceeding of legal protection applications, providing various patent surveys and other services, which help the entrepreneurs to better navigate in the industrial property environment.
