Vostok Thrust · IP and investment
Intellectual property, investment and partnerships
Good science needs protected results, patient capital and the right partners. Thrust brings the three together.
Vostok Thrust holds intellectual property, investment and Licensing & Strategic Partnerships for the group, and offers the same specialist work to external teams.
Scope
Intellectual property
We develop results and register intellectual property to international standards, working with specialist IP law firms and experts.
Investment
We prepare a project for funders and investors: the scientific evidence and its gaps, the rights to the results, the development plan and budget, and the structure of the project company. We then look for the right sources — international grants and targeted research funds first, then partners and private investors. Funding is never assumed: every project is assessed on its own evidence.
Licensing & Strategic Partnerships
We structure the transfer and licensing of intellectual property: title transfer, licences, milestone payments and profit sharing.
Licensing
Licensing a specific result presupposes a confirmed basis for disposing of the relevant rights.
For external teams
If you want to assess how original your invention is, whether it can be patented, or how to prepare it for protection abroad, write to us — we will advise.
