The basics: our mission, vision and values

Our mission

Our task is to protect and manage our clients’ intellectual property and develop the forms of IP protection.

Kolster’s business idea is to provide consulting services relating to intellectual property rights, and in particular industrial property rights. Our comprehensive services cover the acquisition, maintenance and enforcement of industrial property rights and searches and opinions associated with them. We give advice and assistance in creating and putting into effect corporate IP strategies. Our services are based on the client’s benefit and needs. We endeavour to optimise the solutions we offer in such a way that they produce a competitive edge for our clients.

We are actively involved in the operations of both national and international associations and organisations in the IP sector. We aim to develop IP legislation and the forms of protection in a way that benefits our clients.

Our vision

We aim to be our clients’ strategic partner in the protection and management of intellectual property rights. As the leader in the field, we provide high quality IPR services, enabling our clients to leverage tangible results from intangible rights.

We measure our widely recognised expertise and leading position in the industry, both at home and abroad, with reference to a number of criteria. These include knowledge of the field, high quality services, turnover, comprehensive specialist resources and an extensive network of services and partners.

In order to offer the best expertise in the field, we depend on a highly skilled staff and a system of quality processes. We maintain a high level of service quality by investing in staff training and the continual development of internal processes. We invest in our client relations and endeavour to know their business through close co-operation.

Our values

Our values include ethics and confidentiality, quality and competence, and well-being of our employees at work.

We base our operations on observing the general ethics of an attorney’s business in a responsible manner and on treating in absolute confidence information handed over to us by clients.

We want to provide our clients with top-quality services. To do this and to keep the quality high means that the personnel must be competent and we must invest in that competence.

Our employees are our most important resource, and their well-being is a cornerstone of our business.
