Based in Switzerland, Thalorin provides legal counsel focused on intellectual property for developers of applications and hardware. Our methodical process is intended to clarify rights, adapt filings to project timelines, and support collaboration arrangements.

We outline filing options — patent, design registration, and deal designation choices — aligned with product milestones and market plans. Recommendations may support timing and jurisdiction selection appropriate to each project.

Contracting & Licensing

We prepare contributor agreements, confidentiality templates, and licensing terms to clarify ownership and permitted uses. Clauses are tailored to hardware and application collaboration contexts and can help manage third‑party integrations.
