TRIZInside – Strategic IP & Innovation

TRIZInside – where ideas, methodology and protection strategy come together.

TRIZInside | Carmen Lehner – Turning Ideas Into Clear IP Strategies

A solid IP strategy transforms ideas into defensible competitive advantages.

From Idea to a Focused and Defensible IP Strategy

With the matrix, you can identify early which technical ideas truly have potential – and which risks or overlaps exist within the patent landscape.You immediately see:
-where investments are worthwhile,
-where design-around options make sense,
-and which white spaces you can strategically occupy.
This enables clear, focused and robust IP decisions –
long before significant development or patent costs arise.

Innovation Meets IP – TRIZ as the Bridge Between Engineering and Strategy

When Engineering and IP are not aligned, innovation loses its power.

In many companies, Engineering and IP speak different languages:
engineers think in functions,
patent attorneys think in claims.
Between the two, misunderstandings, delays, and missed protection opportunities often arise.
TRIZInside bridges this gap by making technical ideas structured, visible, and clearly describable before they enter IP processes.With technical depth, methodological clarity and IP understanding, early ideas become
precisely articulated, protectable and strategically relevant innovations.
This creates a shared foundation on which Engineering and IP can finally work together –
without friction, without translation issues.

Patent Analysis & Innovation Spaces

Technical and methodological analyses that make the unseen visible and prepare sound development decisions.

Many risks within the IP landscape lie beneath the surface.
To prevent development projects from stalling at a late stage, teams gain early clarity on potential conflict areas, technical overlaps, and possible design spaces.
Teams benefit from:
-structured novelty and landscape analyses,
-clear claim structuring and technical function models,
-TRIZ-based design alternatives and technically reasoned solution spaces.
This creates a sound, technically informed decision-making foundation on which
patent attorneys can perform a legal assessment (including freedom-to-operate)
in a well-supported and reliable manner.

Das result:

clear orientation, reduced development risks, and robust decisions –
long before significant development or patent costs arise.

Important Note

The legal assessment is carried out exclusively by a patent attorney.
The preparatory technical analysis provides the necessary transparency for that assessment.

From Analysis to Strategy

Understand technologies. Structure trends. Derive roadmaps.

Structured patent and technology analyses reveal not only where competitors stand today,
but also the directions in which a development can meaningfully evolve.
Complex patent content is translated into clear, strategic development impulses –
enabling technical differentiation, viable design-around options, and a strong competitive position.
TRIZ-based trend analyses, technology radars, and scope comparisons
make patterns visible that pave the way for a future-oriented, data-driven innovation strategy.

My Impact in Innovation & IP

Turning complex ideas into actionable innovation.

Spaces for innovation emerge where technical ideas are allowed to grow,
where structure provides orientation, and where clarity about an idea’s true value is created.
This is how early concepts evolve into protectable and economically relevant innovations.
Uncertainty is replaced by structure.
Blocking routines give way to new ways of thinking.
Technical complexity becomes understandable, prioritizable, and strategically usable.

Impact that becomes measurable

With this approach, the following outcomes were achieved:
-systematic early-warning models for innovation and development risks
-a Europe-wide coordinated IP strategy
-digital transparency across patent and development workflows
-a workshop format that generated 67 solution concepts and 45 patentable ideas in a single session

Take advantage of a free, individually prepared short analysis.
Submit any patent relevant to your development — technical distinctions, design spaces, and initial action options will be made visible.
A clear, compact view of possible paths forward.
You will receive at least two technical design-around options and one potential development direction — concise, neutral, and without any meeting required.
Only the patent number is needed.

Structure Meets Inventiveness

Innovation emerges where structure and creativity come together.

Technical developments gain value when creative approaches intersect with a clear, methodical structure.
Only then can ideas be reliably evaluated, purposefully advanced, and transformed into market-oriented innovations.
Technical understanding, systematic analysis, and strategic IP thinking together form the foundation for solutions that work — technically, economically, and competitively.TRIZInside provides a structured approach for making complex technical challenges solvable:
with precise thinking tools, clear methods, and a development process that does not restrict creativity, but uses it.
This creates an environment in which ideas are not left to chance, but mature step by step into robust, viable innovations.

About Me

From idea to protection strategy – I support innovation end-to-end.

With more than ten years of experience at the intersection of engineering, patents, and innovation.Complex technical ideas become understandable, structured, and ready for protection when clarity, method, and technical insight come together.
This is where innovation gains direction — and where teams can turn ideas into protected, scalable value.
Whether in large corporations or SMEs, teams gain support in recognizing invention potential, setting priorities, and using IP as a driver of innovation.

Statement

Creativity is not a coincidence.
When engineering, strategy and the courage to rethink come together, solutions emerge that both protect and inspire.
TRIZInside stands for exactly this connection — combining engineering insight, clarity and inventive thinking.
