GenIP(®) is a UK incorporated company using Generative Artificial
Intelligence ("GenAI"), whose mission is to empower organisations to better
evaluate and commercialise technology discoveries through two distinct, yet
complementary, services namely;
(a.) providing bespoke enhanced research reports assessing market potential
for new technological innovations by using the Company's GenAI driven
proprietary software, InventionEvaluator(®); and
(b.) providing executive recruitment services to match technology
organisations with experienced executives and business leaders using the
Company's GenAI-driven proprietary software, Vortechs.
Both of these new services couple GenAI analytics with expert human review.
GenIP operates globally but its main business interests are within the United
Kingdom, the United States and Latin America.
GenIP is a spin-out of Tekcapital Plc, an AIM listed technology incubator that
has been successful in identifying and developing various technology
companies, which effective from 4 June 2024, transferred to the Company
certain assets and intellectual property connected to InventionEvaluator(®)
and Vortechs.
Since then, GenIP completed the transformation of their predecessor products
through the integration of GenAI technology and as from 1 September 2024,
offers new services under InventionEvaluator(®) and Vortechs brands.
The incorporation of GenAI into the Services not only enabled the Company to
roll out new, improved products but further enhancements are expected over the
next year, so that InventionEvaluator(®)'s new reports are delivered at a
fraction of the time previously required and with a vastly expanded data set
at a reduced incremental cost. Additionally, the Company will, as an add-on
feature, be able to offer these reports in upwards of 75 languages. In this
way, the Company seeks to crystalise this opportunity in creating a
first-to-market advantage, with the focus of offering GenAI analytic tools
coupled with Vortechs executive search assignments for identifying team
members that can help bring new innovations to market on a global basis.
