ThinkData Announces New Data Partnership with IPqwery

Partnership to provide insight into intellectual property holdings through the ThinkData Works Marketplace


TORONTO, ON - January 22, 2020
— ThinkData Works, Inc. (ThinkData), the Toronto tech company, has entered into a partnership with IPqwery. Through this partnership, ThinkData will provide access to IPqwery’s database of IP profiles, including patent and trademark data, for any business from startups to Fortune 500 companies.

Alt-data provider IPqwery, of Montréal, Canada, aggregates patent and trademark data to make it convenient and accessible for users with varied needs. Powerful analytics are applied to public data to resolve entity disambiguation, relationship and ticker mapping, and more. IPqwery refines the difficult-to-navigate world of trademark and patent holdings to provide comprehensive IP profiles for any company.

  • Patent and Trademark data as separate or combined data feeds
  • IP owner portfolio mapping
  • IP mapped to ticker
  • Mapping commercial brands to company ownership
  • Multi-jurisdiction sources include Canada, USA, Europe, World Intellectual Property Organization
  • Discover owners, inventors, technologies, brands, and IP-filing trends

“We’re excited to partner with ThinkData,” said IPqwery’s Director of Business Development, Mitchell Schwartz.

“IPqwery transforms the way to discover, use, and gain insight into intellectual property holdings, from broad-based queries down to very discrete resolutions, and working with ThinkData helps us get this valuable data into the market.”

Lewis Wynne-Jones, Head of Data Acquisition for ThinkData, says, “IP data is one of those ‘known-unknowns’ for a lot of businesses. It’s famously inaccessible, despite technically being public information. Partnering with IPqwery gives us the opportunity to provide rich, custom IP profiles to our clients and roll them up to parent companies in order to see who are leaders and who’s developing products.”

Patent and trademark data, such as the information provided through the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, the European Intellectual Property Office, and the World Intellectual Property Organization, provide detailed insight into the businesses and individuals that are filing intellectual property. In addition to providing owners and licensees with legal protection against IP infringement, patents and trademarks also indicate how a company is growing, what brands they market, and in what areas they’re focusing their resources.
