Ensure Your Patents are Recognized in International Markets

The value of intellectual property cannot be overstated. It can form the basis of profit for your company for over a hundred years per patent. This enduring value is also one of the reasons that filing and protecting your patents is so challenging. When you are translating a patent for an international market, every detail matters. Discrepancies in your original patent and your foreign language patents could cost you millions. Adhering to the formalities of a given language and culture will help protect you.
To facilitate the process, the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) streamlines international patent applications, including in many countries where European patents are necessary. Once the initial application process is complete, you’ll need to work with in country patent offices to provide more information.

The Best Translator and Technology for Your Patent

ALTA knows that picking the right translator for your project is essential. Just as a marketing expert would not write a technical document, translators have unique specialties. Your patent will be translated by a professional, human translator with subject matter expertise in the relevant area, such as life sciences or engineering.
But technology can help. The use of translation memory software speeds the translation process while keeping translation costs down. This software allows ALTA to build a memory of translations used in your document. Translation memory ensures you don’t pay for the same translations twice. It can also be used to ensure previous translations are applied to future documents to reduce costs. ALTA provides this service at no additional cost.

Patent Translations from a Reputable Translation Company

Patents serve as the basis for your intellectual property claims. Without patents translated and on file in the relevant international patent offices, you could risk having your intellectual property stolen. Intellectual property enforcement on the international stage is uneven at best. In order to protect yourself, you need to make the right moves as quickly as you can. Otherwise, you could find yourself in a protracted battle to protect your property—a battle that you could very well lose in some jurisdictions.
ALTA has a reputation for quickly and efficiently translating complex business documents. Your patents and other documents will convey the precise meaning of the product, service, or idea that you intend to protect. This will help you when it comes time to expand internationally and establish your business in new markets. We work hard to ensure that every shade of meaning in your original text is preserved and conveyed effectively.
