Firm Profile

Our business

Specialists in scientific, technical, and patent literature, we recognize the growing value and importance of timely, accurate, and comprehensive information. In the domain of our expertise, we assist our clients in solving information problems ranging from simple to complex. We start with correct identification of the problem, recommend the optimum solution, and search for relevant information. In many cases our assistance further includes a thorough review, analysis, and interpretation of the retrieved information, before reporting the results.

Our commitments

At InfoSciTech, we are committed to the highest standards of quality and responsiveness to our clients' needs. From individual inventors to patent agents and intellectual property lawyers retaining our services on behalf of their clients, from small and medium-sized businesses to prestigious intellectual property law firms, from technology transfer offices of universities to patent departments of large corporations, in Canada and abroad, we provide our clients with result-oriented, efficient, and fully confidential service. We closely watch the area of information technology and take advantage of any new developments and resources which may profit our clients. In our work, we make an extensive use of the latest technology, to improve cost-effectiveness and productivity.

Our human resources

As providers of scientific, technical, and patent information, we offer a background and technical insight difficult to match. Between the two principals of the firm, we share advanced degrees in chemistry (Ph.D., M.Eng.) and electronics (M.Eng.) and a combined 40 years of experience in scientific and engineering research, in the area of organic chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, and electronics. This experience made us thoroughly familiar not only with those and related areas of science and technology, but also with sources of scientific and technical information in languages including English, French, German, Russian, and Polish. One of us is also a registered Canadian patent agent, having over 11 years of experience in all aspects of patent drafting and prosecution, in Canada and abroad, and an extensive hands-on experience in patent-related searching. We combine this unusual knowledge and experience with speed and efficiency, to provide a quality service at competitive prices. 

Our information resources

Matching information problems with the most appropriate information sources, we design search strategies custom-tailored for speed, comprehensiveness, and efficiency. In our searches, we make an extensive but judicious use of electronic information sources, including online-searchable databases offered by several major hosts (Dialog, STN, Orbit/Questel), various CD-ROM databases, and information resources available on the Internet. When requested or appropriate, we search printed patent and/or non-patent (scientific and technical) literature, usually to locate information missing from electronic databases, due to their incompleteness or limited time and subject coverage. Being located in the Ottawa (national capital) area, we take advantage of direct access to patent information resources of the Canadian Patent Office, science and engineering libraries of two universities, and collection of scientific and technical literature of the Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information (CISTI), one of the largest of its kind in the world. Through our associates, we undertake searches in libraries and foreign Patent Offices world-wide.
