Welcome to AccelPro IP Law, where we provide expert interviews and coaching to accelerate your professional development. Today we’re featuring a conversation with Evan Zimmerman, CEO and co-founder of Edge.
Zimmerman is the co-founder of Edge, a Y-Combinator backed patent assistance platform which helps patent practitioners draft patents and disclosures. He is also founder of venture capital firm Jovono and author of patent blog Nonobvious.
Zimmerman discusses building a patent assistance platform, the patent application process, localization for patent work, the changing role of patents and more.
“Good inputs make good outputs. That's true in the patent world as it is in anything else,” Zimmerman says.
“Ultimately, what we see is that if you're a patent practitioner you're in the business of making satisfied clients and helping them achieve their business objectives in their innovation through intellectual property.
If we can help you make more satisfied clients, both through a better client experience and better serving the core need that the client has, we’ve fundamentally helped you with your business.”
