PATENTED.NETWORK
Create strong brands & businesses from patents.
A platform of due-diligence-ready patents where investors, venture capital firms, entrepreneurs, organizations, business communities, R&D departments; anyone with the financial heft and acumen for turning ideas into businesses can connect and collaborate with patent holders to commercialize their innovations.
OUR PATENT ROSTER
Cherry pick our patent-backed ideas for your next venture.
Our listed patents are double-checked for ownership, current status with the Indian Patent Office, filings, geographical jurisdiction, lifespan, and they are litigation free.
Meet with the inventors. Procure usage licences, or acquire patents outright; they’ll even mentor you on operationalizing them. We’ll be alongside until the last document is inked.
LIST, LICENCE, SELL YOUR PATENTS
Earn from your patents. Without taking on the operations of a business.
We will match you with clients who have what it takes to commercialize your patents. They’ll raise funds, garner resources, set-up the business and run the operations while you enjoy your innovator’s premium.
You can opt to license your patents, get into revenue share arrangements or sell outright.
We will guide you, from the first meeting all the way up to deal closure.
Value Your Patents
Know the worth of your invention, claim your premium.
TVP™ (True Value of Patents), our proprietary valuation tool fine-tunes patent value by adjusting for variables relevant to your domain, and arrives at a tenable, real-world worth of your invention. It’s the one thing you got to do before monetizing your patents.
And, we can then open doors to potential buyers or licensees.
TVP™ is a trademark of IP Crafters Advisory Pvt. Ltd.(PATENTED.NETWORK)
EVERYTHING PATENTS
Patent Registrations, FTO, Prior Art & Landscaping.
PRIOR ART & LANDSCAPING
Before filing your patent, we’ll search for simply anything that exists anywhere in the world, pertaining to your invention; be it a foreign patent, scientific publication, movie scene, comic book or toy and advise you on next steps
REGISTER PATENTS
If you’ve found a new way, we’ll not only register your patent, but also take care of all the mandatory interventions that will prevent it from lapsing and will ward off copy-cats.
FTO (Freedom to Operate)
We’ll sift through available literature on patents applied for and granted, and alert you if your invention is infringing on any.

I hope you liked what you saw on PATENTED.NETWORK. I am a lawyer, a registered Indian Patent Attorney, Founder-Director of IP Crafters Advisory Pvt. Ltd. (PATENTED.NETWORK), and SimSim Advisory Pvt. Ltd., a law and patents firm.
After M.Sc. in Laser & Plasma Physics from Mumbai University, I completed my M.S. from Ohio State University, followed by a teaching stint at Lake Tahoe Community College, California.
Professional life was set with Physics, until one evening Legally Blonde* happened to be playing on television. I am not blonde, and I wasn't even a fan of the movie, but life being the way it is, I decided law, and not physics, would be my career focus.
I enrolled myself at I.I.T. Kharagpur in 2006 and left the campus in 2009 with an LL.B. specializing in Intellectual Property Rights in one hand and my first born in the other. Productive years indeed.
Stints at Pangea3, a U.S based legal process outfit and Legal Excel were followed by the birth of my second child, and a spell at W.S. Kane & Company, Mumbai where I took charge of the patents and trademark infringement cases as well as patent filings and other matters related to IP
I completed my LL.M. in Corporate Law from V.M.Salgaocar Law College, Panaji, and skilled myself with an advanced certification in patent valuation from Business Development Academy, U.S.A.
In my corporate law, patents and trademarks career, I have settled trademark disputes against Amazon (U.S.T.P.O.), handled trademark advisory and prosecutions in the U.S. and India, filed patents and trademarks for Indian and International clients, and drafted technology transfer agreements.
I am an advisor to Goa University on IP matters, and have co-authored papers on “Comparative Studies Between U.S., E.U. and India” and on Patent Valuation.
I run PATENTED.NETWORK and SimSim Advisory while pursuing my Ph.D. (Finance) in Valuation of Intangibles from the Department of Management Studies at Goa University.
I love writing, reading, and the great outdoors. Baking too. And the occasional movie on T.V.

Melvin is in charge of the brand, business plans, customer acquisition strategies, and provides nifty counsel in all customer-facing initiatives, investor talks and partnerships. He is the ‘inside-outsider’ for us; he views PATENTED.NETWORK from an outsider’s perspective and flags the important stuff that might have gone unnoticed, or needs to be done.
He brings to PATENTED.NETWORK over two decades of experience in being part of and leading advertising & branding agency teams that launched and built some of India’s big, exciting consumer brands in FMCG, finance, automobile, and telecom domains.
His knack for coming up with uncommon yet imminently doable and effective ideas, and simplifying complicated stuff well enough for grandma to grasp it help greatly.
He loves cats, chess, the outdoors, travelling, exploring, writing stuff and more cats. He runs a brand consultancy, business advisory and content outfit named Under The Bridge. No idea why it’s called so, and he won’t oblige us with an answer.
He has also conceptualized and created this website. Dig it? Drop him a line at UnderTheBridge.Brands@gmail.com or highway3@gmail.com.
