"It's been great to be on the programme - having IP as part of our company has definitely added another level to our pitches. My favourite part, definitely has to be the trip to Japan to showcase and demonstrate at the Panasonic headquarters in Osaka. This is where I really got to understand and learn about where the IP was generated - along with how other companies are incorporating their own IP. IPHatch® really helped to open my eyes to ways in which we could expand and enhance our offering and serve global markets instead of local ones."

Co-founder, Syncd:IN


"The IPHatch® program was transformative for our startup. It exposed us to mature technologies from successful global corporations, opening entirely new pathways for innovation. This access allowed us to bypass years of R&D, providing a unique springboard to develop novel commercial options. We could focus on creating market-ready applications from proven foundational IP, accelerating our journey from concept to viable product. It reframed how we approach strategic growth."

"IPHatch® Program offered more than access to IP — it offered perspective. Through the program, I gained a deeper understanding of how IP can support market entry, partnership building, and strategic thinking. This experience helped us approach innovation with greater awareness of trust and real-world business dynamics, especially when working across borders."
