Case study description
Oxylabs' patenting approach is based on the desire to protect its innovations and their possible future developments. This is a difficult task in the dynamic era of the all-digital and truly global business model.
Oxylabs' success in creating a solid patent portfolio is due in large part to a comprehensive, multi-faceted and all-encompassing awareness building and training programme.
