História de sucesso do PCT: Módulo sanitário para economizar água em WCs

14 de Setembro de 2023

Graças a esse pedido PCT, pudemos dar segurança aos investidores e realizar a nossa primeira captação de recursos. Para uma jovem start-up como a nossa, o prazo suplementar concedido graças ao depósito de um pedido internacional antes de determinar quais mercados nos interessam, em vista dos custos associados ao depósito de um pedido internacional, é muito interessante.

Esse prazo nos permitiu implementar a R&D e avaliar a patenteabilidade de nossa inovação com relação ao mercado, especialmente graças ao relatório de pesquisa internacional. Pudemos assim tomar decisões relativas às fases nacionais com pleno conhecimento dos fatos.

O mercado de Cleantech é internacional e se desenvolve rapidamente, as inovações são muito procuradas. O depósito de um pedido internacional segundo o PCT tinha vários objetivos:

  • proteger internacionalmente nossa inovação na reciclagem de água e evitar que projetos semelhantes fossem depositados antes que pudéssemos realizar a versão final de nosso protótipo,
  • valorizar nossa inovação, assim como nossa empresa, e
  • dar confiança aos potenciais investidores.
