Patents
A patent grants the holder an exclusive right to exploit an invention that is new, involves an inventive step and is capable of industrial application. In Kenya, patents are granted by the Kenya Industrial Property Institute under the Industrial Property Act, conferring protection for a defined term during which the invention may be commercialised or licensed.

Gracen Law advises inventors and businesses on patentability, filing strategy and the commercial arrangements that turn an invention into a protected asset. Securing the right scope of protection early, and structuring licences and assignments with care, preserves the value of innovation and supports sustainable growth.
