Although there are classes such as patents in designs, there are no design research on the basis of subject matter or class basis as well as patents. The reason of this is that computer programs that allow research with designs are not flexible enough. Therefore, the design research is mainly carried out on behalf of the applicant and the designer. However, if requested, design research can be conducted on a subject basis with intensified studies.
As the design research service provided by KORDINAT is done on behalf of the applicant and the designer, if necessary, detailed research can be conducted on a subject basis. KORDINAT carries out its design research with its own patent attorneys with sectorial experience.
