Centredoc is as they called themselves 'a major player' in Switzerland's technology watch and economic intelligence. This organization launched RFID Patents, a portal for a new patent watch, which focuses on RFID technology.
Centredoc says that RFID technology is the subject of intense activity in the field of patents. "Proof of this can be seen in the increasing number of patent applications published over the last five years.
Between 2000 and 2004, no fewer than 1,625 new inventions have been published, of which 697 in 2004 alone, representing a year-on-year increase of 65%", so the organization states.
Patent watch portal
On the strength of this observation, Centredoc carried out a survey of innovative firms in this sector to determine their requirements in terms of technological information and, more particularly, patents. This survey has resulted in the launch of the patent watch portal RFID Patents.
"Intended to provide regular and pertinent information, RFID Patents sees itself as the first stop for businesses active in this area to obtain information on intellectual property. Each month, RFID Patents supplies bibliographical data, the summary in English and the complete text of new patents ranging in subject matter from tag technology to readers and their applications. Its coverage extends to American, European and global (PCT) patent applications", says David Borel, Marketing Manager of Centredoc in the Swiss city of Neuchâtel.
Centredoc is founded in 1964 as the technical information centre for the watchmaking industry. Since than it has diversified its activities and today it offers its services to a wide range of industries. Centredoc provides search, analysis and synthesis of scientific, economic, commercial and patent-related information as well as technology & patent monitoring.
