Equinox Corporate and the Future of IP Management at EXOTEC
Comprehensive IP management, an intuitive and flexible dashboard, and extensive capabilities are three reasons why EXOTEC switched to Equinox Corporate as its chosen IPMS.
Founded in France in 2015 and now recognized as an ‘industrial unicorn,’ EXOTEC designs and develops innovative solutions based on automated guided vehicles (AGVs), combining robotics and software to optimize order fulfilment and logistics for retail, industry, and e-commerce.
As we shared in our recent webinar on how to ‘future proof’ IP management, its IP team—including Head of IP Olivier Billard and Patent Engineer & European Patent Attorney Nathalie Herrou—recently switched to our Equinox Corporate IP management system (IPMS). Here we summarize the three key reasons behind their change and three key areas of feedback about the switch to the Equinox platform.
"A truly ‘plug-and-play' solution, deployed and live in less than three months."

Preparing for the Future of IP Management with the Equinox IPMS
When asked which Equinox Corporate features pushed them to switch from Excel management to our Equinox IPMS, Olivier and Nathalie shared the following three reasons:
