ipQuants AG is pleased to announce a long-term strategic partnership with HGF, one of Europe’s leading firms of intellectual property (IP) specialists, building on HGF’s established use of the Qthena platform within its patent practice. 

The partnership will support HGF’s continued adoption of specialist AI tools designed for patent professionals, complementing the firm’s broader technology and AI strategy. Qthena is used by HGF patent attorneys across a range of activities, including patent drafting, office action responses, oppositions, appeals, and prior art analysis.
