IP Support for Innovator Founder Settlement Applications
Panoramix IP supported Equisy and its founders with intellectual property protection and R&D documentation for their Innovator Founder settlement applications. Working to a short deadline, we identified key inventions and designs within the business, filed two patent applications and registered design applications, and prepared comprehensive R&D reports to document the company’s innovation activity.
The Client
Equisy Venture Limited is an innovation-led business whose founders approached Panoramix IP while developing new technology and intellectual property within the company.
The business was actively undertaking research and development, resulting in new inventions and designs with the potential for formal intellectual property protection. As the founders prepared their Innovator Founder settlement applications, they needed to ensure this innovation activity was appropriately identified, documented and, where suitable, protected.
Equisy approached Panoramix IP for support in reviewing the intellectual property being created within the business and putting appropriate patent, registered design and R&D documentation in place within a short timeframe.
The Challenge
The founders were working towards a short deadline and needed to document the company’s research, development, innovation and intellectual property activity in support of their applications for indefinite leave to remain.
This involved more than simply filing IP applications. We first needed to understand the technology being developed, identify the inventions and designs that could potentially be protected and establish what documentation would appropriately demonstrate the company’s R&D and IP activity.
Panoramix IP provides dedicated IP support for Innovator Founder Visa applicants, including helping founders identify and protect intellectual property created within their businesses.
The Solution
Working closely with Equisy’s founders, we reviewed the technology and innovation being developed within the business and identified the inventions that should be prioritised for protection.
We then prepared and filed two patent applications within the required timeframe, creating a formal record of the inventions while beginning the process of seeking patent protection.

Our work went beyond the patent applications. We also prepared comprehensive R&D reports, documenting the company’s research, development and innovation activity and providing a clearer record of the work being undertaken by the business.
We also identified relevant designs suitable for protection and prepared and filed registered design applications.
By considering patents, designs and R&D documentation together, we were able to build a more comprehensive picture of the innovation and intellectual property being created within the company.
The Outcome
Despite the short timeframe, Panoramix IP successfully put a package of IP protection and supporting documentation in place for Equisy.
This included two filed patent applications, registered design applications and comprehensive R&D reports, providing the founders with supporting documentation for their Innovator Founder settlement applications while also strengthening the company’s wider intellectual property position.
The work did more than address an immediate deadline. It also helped Equisy identify and formally protect intellectual property that could continue to have commercial value as the business develops.
