Why We Do What We Do
The Benefits of debiasing the Patent Industry
We believe increasing debiasing the patent profession is important for several compelling reasons:
Diverse teams bring a broader spectrum of perspectives and experiences to the table.
By debiasing in the patent profession, this aim ensures that the legal field more accurately reflects the broader population. This representation is vital in promoting trust and confidence in the legal system.
In an increasingly globalized world, debiasing the patent profession can provide a better understanding of international markets and the legal intricacies involved, which can be valuable for businesses and inventors with international interests.
Companies and clients are increasingly seeking diverse legal representation. A more debiased patent profession can give firms a competitive edge in attracting a broader client base.
