Book one sparring session or more with me and get your IP-do-does crossed off that list efficiently!
Sparring sessions offer a valuable opportunity to receive insightful feedback and engage in meaningful discussions. Whether you’re making important decisions, preparing for high-stakes negotiations, or refining your intellectual property strategy, these sessions can be incredibly beneficial.
Single sparring sessions are designed to address specific questions and help you find answers—whether independently, with my assistance, or by consulting other experts, such as intellectual property lawyers or patent attorneys specializing in your area of need.
If you recognize the value of multiple sessions, consider investing in a sparring session bundle.
Enhance your planning by aligning it with your current needs and future goals!
My sparring packages allow you to save money while committing to a series of 5 or 10 sparring sessions. Each session can focus on a new topic or we can delve deeper into a specific area across some or all of your package sessions.
Depending on your needs, we can address topics such as intellectual property knowledge, framework setup support, opportunity mapping, preparing a patent application draft, or adapting general frameworks from courses to meet your specific business requirements, among other options.
I offer flexible sparring sessions in 15, 30, and 60-minute formats so that you can choose them depending on your goals with the session.
Schedule a session today to get your insights and accelerate your IP strategy planning and execution.
Hit the headings below to unfold further descriptions of suggestions for each duration.
Use the 15-minute STARTERhelp session. They are only available as a one-time (free) offer for each customer. They are often an excellent kick-off for a longer customized sparring session package – or you get your question answered there and then – needing nothing further.
Pick 30-minute sparring sessions if you need a quick run-through of one specific question or challenge that you are stuck with and need a professional IP mentor to help you get unstuck. It’s a great “let’s move on fast” session. (It requires knowing what you need and want answers to.)
When you book this type of session, you will receive a session prep form to fill out (if you want). This enables you to reflect on what you need the sparring session for, and I will prepare for it, giving you the most value for your investment.
Book a 60-minute sparring session if you need a step-by-step talk or time to discuss 1-3 questions from different angles. They are best if you need to understand what we discuss more deeply and want to incorporate it into your workflows.
When you book this type of session, you will receive a session prep form to fill out (if you want). This enables you to reflect on what you need the sparring session for, and I will prepare for it, giving you the most value for your investment.
When paired with a course from my platform, they create a “workshop-style” environment that focuses solely on you and your objectives. However, they use existing material that I can adapt to fit your workflows like a glove.
I have listed examples of how other customers have customized sparring sessions to meet their needs.
They can provide their team (or themselves) with a professional perspective on IP opportunities and risks in your business before you enter into a partnership. They can help you implement step-by-step guides on what to do in preparation for your upcoming collaboration with patent attorneys or create a “don’t panic plan” for when you are copied and what to ensure that your reaction is appropriate and professional.
You have been growing your business for a while.
You hired people or are working with external support and experts and can feel vulnerable to a breach of confidentiality or uncertainty about people leaving and potentially working with a competitor.
On the other hand, you also need to capture your IP opportunities to monetize the investment you made, and with more people involved, ownership and awareness can be difficult to maintain.
Reach out for a tailor-made solution: We can create a workshop where we check your product development cycle for vulnerabilities regarding IP-related risks and opportunities.
If you’re ready to launch a business with a powerful brand name or a unique product identity, my name-finding workshop is just what you need.
I’ll help you discover a memorable name that you can trademark in your country, Europe, or the US.
Strong brand recognition is crucial for a successful launch and marketing strategy, and securing a trademark protects your unique identity while preventing confusion in the market. Take this chance to establish a name that truly reflects your vision!
Naja and I spent a few hours finding a few potential product names for her business. If you are curious, I have written a blog post about how Naja used this potential in customized sparring sessions.
If you just started your business or your success is picking up, there is good reason to take your and your competition’s rights more seriously.
The law requires certain things from you as a business, and you might as well get your outward-facing material checked for opportunities to protect it or potential risks of infringing upon others.
Let’s customize a solution to optimize your processes, content, and homepage.
This is a service of popular demand. First, we will check if I am affiliated with your potential partner to avoid conflicts. Then we agree on a package that you need. You send information for me to review and comment on,n and we meet online to discuss what I think you should consider from an intellectual property or ownership perspective.
Sometimes, this means that you get a checklist for your negotiations, and other times, I will refer you to an IP lawyer to check up on some contractual legal details that a specialist in a specific field should examine.
Instead of doing everything from scratch and yourself, get my help to make an easy-to-digest package for your patent attorney to pick up and work on, with only some additional supplemental questions to ask.
Based on this, you can create an internal guideline for the next time you need to do something similar and save a lot of time on questions, doubts, and disappointments.

“I am completely satisfied”
“I am completely satisfied! Gyde was recommended to me to help me review contracts and agreements, and I was already given concrete paths to take within our 15-minute clarification conversation.
I had two cases I needed help with, and I solved one in the 15-minute clearing interview – and thus chose to continue the collaboration, to my great satisfaction.”
“Gyde from PATENTsmarter™ is my go-to person when I need to review new agreements and contracts.”
“Gyde from PATENTsmarter™ is my go-to person when I need to review new agreements and contracts.
Gyde is a keen observer who skillfully examines agreements to provide an initial assessment and overview.
She then advises me impartially, allowing me to make the subsequent important decisions myself. Gyde excels at simplifying complex material and is an excellent help to me.”

“My warmest recommendation to you, Gyde, I have become SO much wiser!”
“My warmest recommendation to you, Gyde, I have become SO much wiser!
Thank you so much, Gyde – your session has saved me a lot of money and misjudgments in relation to my business. And thank you for your honest and simple way of explaining the different concepts to me. And not to forget, your engaged interest in my business.
Once more: Thank you.”

When you book an idearlify® SPARRING single sparring session or bundle, certain rules apply for e.g. when and how to cancel or reschedule.
Read them before you book!
It is important to clarify that I do not provide legal advice during Sparring Sessions or any other offerings at PATENTsmarter™.
Instead, Sparring Sessions are a valuable opportunity for you to gain professional insights tailored to your unique situation. Through our discussions, we can examine how various factors may impact your business, empowering you to make informed decisions and create a strategic plan—whether before, during, or after consulting with legal advisors or patent attorneys.
I strongly believe in maintaining a clear distinction between those you seek for guidance in developing strategies and plans, and those who are compensated to execute the plans you create. By keeping this separation in mind, you can navigate your path more effectively and confidently.
Invest in one or more sparring sessions in good time, before engaging an IP lawyer or patent advisor.
Let me help you prepare what your advisors need to do what you asked for and need, so your advisors' work is well-defined and and pay for what you came for, without extras.
Gyde's sparring sessions can help you get unstuck or provide a starting point in what might feel as a chaotic minefield field of rules.
Longer sessions are better for supporting you with practical copy-defense actions, strategies or work - before, during or after you hire a lawyer or advisor.
If you want help with copy-defense planning and sticking to the plan without spending too much or losing motivation, Sparring bundles are perfect for you.
Let's make your intellectual property work as a natural part of your workflows, together!

Indholdet garanteres ikke at være korrekt eller opdateret med de seneste nationale eller internationale lovændringer. Nogle gange må begreber blive forenklet for at reducere kompleksiteten og sikre en bedre begrebsforståelse, hvilket betyder, at udvalgte emner eller aspekter kan være udeladt eller ikke fremhævet fra alle vinkler.
Det er dit (brugerens) ansvar som virksomhedsejer at sikre, at du kender de juridiske konsekvenser af dine handlinger og dermed også at konsultere en patentadvokat eller juridisk rådgiver, før du handler på baggrund af noget, du har lært eller konkluderet på baggrund af produkter, ydelser og indhold leveret af PATENTsmarter™.
Selvom PATENTsmarter™ kan hjælpe med at strømline dit arbejde og fremhæve tilgængelige muligheder og risici, der skal overvejes, kan det ikke erstatte rådgivning fra en patentkonsulent eller juridisk rådgiver.
Din specifikke situation, forretningsmodel, produktdetaljer, konkurrentsituation og adfærd er nogle af de aspekter, der påvirker din juridiske status, og som i nogle tilfælde kan synes at være i modstrid med det, du har lært på f.eks. specifikke PATENTsmarter™-kurser.
