Questel Named Best IP Tech Provider of 2025

Boston, MA – May 6, 2025 – Questel, a global leader in intellectual property (IP) solutions, has been named Technology Solution of the Year at the 2025 LSPN North America Awards, held on May 6 in Boston. This prestigious recognition honors Orbit BioSequence, Questel’s innovative solution designed to simplify and enhance the way biotech companies and IP professionals manage biological sequence data within the context of global patent protection.

“We’re honored to be recognized among hundreds of entries from across the industry,” said Charles Besson, CEO at Questel. “This award highlights not just the sophistication of Orbit BioSequence, but also our broader vision: to empower smarter, faster, and more strategic IP decisions through intelligent, integrated technologies.”

The judges praised Questel’s solution as a “sophisticated tool that would likely be well-received in the industry,” addressing a critical gap by allowing simultaneous analysis of biological sequences and their legal status — a capability not found in traditional bioinformatics tools.

Orbit BioSequence is part of Questel’s Orbit Intelligence platform and represents a major advancement in smart IP management. It enables life sciences companies, R&D teams, and legal professionals to navigate the complexity of biotech patents with confidence — helping identify relevant sequences, understand legal positioning, and accelerate decision-making.

The award was presented during a live ceremony attended by more than 250 IP professionals at the LSPN North America Spring Conference, hosted by Newton Media. The event celebrates innovation and excellence across patent and life sciences sectors.

This recognition reinforces Questel’s position as a trusted technology partner in the IP world — offering an end-to-end platform that connects search, analytics, portfolio management, and IP lifecycle automation.
