Removing the barriers to collaboration

Global ip network collaboration is essential, yet it can be complex, burdensome, confusing and costly to manage.

Connect is an IP collaboration tool that allows you to work with your network of agents and service providers within a structured environment seamlessly linking instructions, tasks, fees, invoices and payments. Improve productivity and simplify operations while reducing costs and risk.

Why Connect?

  1. Improve productivity
    Connect’s structured global ip collaboration environment enhances productivity by gathering workflow information in one place and replacing email as a communications medium.
  2. Simplify operations
    Simplify your filing and prosecution processes by eliminating email, automating docketing and streamlining your invoice processing workflows with Connect – our IP collaboration tool.
  3. Reduce costs
    Connect’s structured network collaboration environment enables cost savings by reducing the need to match, check and track information in your filing and prosecution and related invoice management processes.
  4. Achieve predictability in your spend
    By structuring and managing fees and invoices for foreign associates, Connect provides consolidated spending details that help improve budget forecasting accuracy.
  5. Reduce risk
    Automated docketing eliminates the risk of overlooking incoming information, which can lead to missed deadlines, late fees and potentially lost rights.
