From pctfiler to inovia

October 28, 2008


Since 2002, we've grown to be the world's number one coordinator of PCT national stage applications with our pctfiler service. We've also added epvalidation, a European validation service to our portfolio and over the past 12 months the company has doubled in size, expanding its New York operations and adding an office in the UK. With so much fresh energy in the business, and because we now have more than one product, we decided it was time to change our name to inovia. We wanted our new name and brand to reflect who we are as a company and the innovative industry that we're in.

The transition

We're pleased to say that our service delivery for both our pctfiler and epvalidation services has not been affected by these changes — they remain as reliable and cost-efficient as ever.
