              Who we are
              Questel is a global provider of tech-enabled professional solutions for managing all types of intellectual assets.

              Questel is a true end-to-end intellectual property solutions provider to more than 20,000 clients and 1.5M users across 30 countries. We offer a comprehensive software suite for searching, analyzing, and managing inventions, patents, design, trademarks and domain names.

These solutions, when combined with our IP cost management platform, deliver clients an average savings of 30-60% across the entire prosecution budget.

              Beyond IP, Questel has become in the recent years a leader in innovation management (management of ideas, partnerships, technologies) and localization (life science, legal translation, corporate localization).

              Questel is a global provider of tech-enabled professional solutions for managing all types of intellectual assets.
              Our Vision
              The crucial role of intangible assets

              The modern economy is based principally on knowledge-intensive activities.

              The key element of value is the greater dependence on human capital and intellectual property for the source of innovative ideas, information, and practices.

              A knowledge-based economy relies on the crucial role of intangible assets within the organizations’ settings in facilitating modern economic growth.

              The intangible resources require specific expertise and best-in-class technologies to be managed efficiently and to contribute to the corporate value creation.

              The crucial role of intangible assets
              Our Mission
              A Purpose-Driven Company

              Questel’s mission is to support its clients in succeeding in the modern knowledge-based economy, by managing their intangible assets in an efficient, secure and sustainable way. Questel has built unique technologies, know-how, and global network of experts, to improve intangible asset management and to streamline administrative tasks.

              Questel works for the efforts of all knowledge producers (creators, innovators, experts, lawyers and researchers) to be rewarded. We imagine and design tomorrow’s software and services to help them enforce their rights, increase their impact, and accurately value their intellectual assets. 

              Behind its mission, Questel considers Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to be a broad-based movement that drives companies to take responsibility for the impact of their activities on customers, employees, communities, and the environment. Companies committed to corporate responsibility also agree to abide by international labor and human rights standards.

              Our guiding principles and beliefs.
              Courtesy
              As the 1st step towards respect. “Speak to everyone in the same way. And listen…”
              Honesty
              With coworkers, partners and customers of course, but first with ourselves. “Know Thyself”
              Courage
              To try, to fail, and to try again. “The journey, rather than the success”
