Intellectual property can be one of a MedTech startup's most valuable assets. A good IP strategy protects your core invention without draining limited funds.
Avoid public disclosure before filing. Presentations, papers and even detailed pitch decks can affect your ability to obtain patents.
Focus first on the features that give your device its competitive advantage. A provisional filing can secure an early date while you refine the design.
Seek advice from an IP professional, and keep lab notebooks and design records up to date.
