The Need
Ever wondered what it is that a customer really wants! Imagine, going to a medical store in search for a paracetamol and getting to know from the shopkeeper that the medicine isn’t available and will be made available the next day. Here, the medicine (paracetamol) is very important for the customer that needs to be taken on an immediate basis. Taking the medicine on the next day might not serve the purpose.
Similarly, in the context of IP, an idea submitted by the inventors or R&D experts need to be evaluated immediately from the point of view of novelty and inventiveness in order to get it patented. Any delay in evaluating the idea may lead to someone else (direct competitor, new start-up, technology giant, etc.) getting that idea patented before the actual inventor whose idea was conceived before.
Although getting an idea patented is a big achievement, it is actually a race against time since many companies, inventors work on the similar type of ideas at any given point of time. It is imperative that an idea submitted needs to get filed in the patent office as quickly as possible in order to gain a competitive advantage and staying ahead and relevant in the market (in a particular technology) at any given point of time.
