WIPANO Billing
Successfully claim WIPANO grants!
Your WIPANO patent grant has been approved, the patent or utility model has been filed, and you’re now faced with the task of filling out the forms? Settling the funds is the final step in claiming your funding.
We are happy to assist you with the billing of your WIPANO patent funding.
Regardless of whether you need to complete individual mandatory packages shortly before the end of the funding period or whether we only help you fill out the accounting documents, we can probably give you tips on how to make the most of the WIPANO grants and even increase the funding amount – for example, for marketing and prototype expenses.
