Patent costs are predictable. Most founders just don't know where to look.
Join serial entrepreneur and IP strategist Ola Wassvik for a 30-minute masterclass on how to build a patent budget you can actually defend to your board, your CFO, and your investors. Ola has managed over 300 patent families and raised more than €84M across deep tech ventures.

Sound familiar?
- You've been blindsided by a patent invoice that was three times what you expected
- You need to present next year's IP budget to finance — and you don't know where to start
- You're filing in too many countries because no one told you to stop
- Your law firm gives you estimates. You need numbers you can plan around.
Patent budgeting isn't complicated. But nobody teaches it to founders. Until now.
