LIVE WEBINAR | The commercial patent mindset: sell, raise, negotiate, scale

Most founders treat patents as legal costs. The ones who scale treat them as leverage.

Join serial entrepreneur and IP strategist Ola Wassvik for a 30-minute masterclass on how to turn your patent portfolio into a tool that closes deals, raises capital, and protects your margins. Ola has managed over 300 patent families and raised more than €84M across deep tech ventures.

Are you this type of founder?

• Investors ask about your IP defensibility and you don't have a sharp answer
• You're filing because everyone says you should, but you don't know what you're building toward
• Your competitors mention patents in their pitch decks and you're not sure if you should too

Patents should not only win in court. They should win in boardrooms, sales calls, and term sheets. Most founders never learn how.
