Product Design & Prototyping

From idea to market, protected as IP

Turnkey product design and prototyping, with design protected from the first sketch

Product design and prototyping is a holistic approach to building a new product from start to finish: market research, problem definition, product development, informed design, and prototyping, and everything in between. Prototyping is the critical phase that turns ideas into interactive experiences quickly and cheaply, so teams can test, learn, and adjust early, before changes get expensive.

Why prototype

Fix it on the bench, not the production line

Making significant adjustments when a product is almost finished adds work and raises costs. Prototypes let design teams adjust early, cutting extra effort and expense.

Launch
Finish a truck, then find the backseats are too small, and the fix pushes back the whole deadline. Prototyping is the window to catch it early.

Test with real users. Every product has a target market, and the market decides what works. Prototypes make user testing possible, giving designers real feedback to act on early.

Win over investors. Investors do not want to fund a design that might work after it is built. They want to see and hold the merchandise, and a prototype helps determine whether more funding is needed.

Nothing beats the tangible. As long as the product is something you can hold in your hands, the value of a prototype endures.

Our approach

Two firms, one path from concept to product

Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come. IIPRD works with InventIndia, its exclusive product design and prototyping partner, to turn game-changing ideas into tangible, IP-based products.

Product failure usually comes from the gap between what a product promises and what it delivers. Together, K&K and InventIndia close that gap across fine designing, prototyping, machining, and UI/UX, through to fundraising.

We think platform-agnostically, solving the problem once and then applying the solution, and treat design as timeless: from every capacitor inside to every pixel the end user touches, with brand and communication built in.

Protecting product design

Design protection, combined for strength

As consumers place more value on the look and feel of what they buy, protecting product design matters more. Design protection is one of the less standardized areas of IP, so the right mix depends on the country or region.

IIPRD advises on the methods and legal means to protect designs around the world, and on the best combination of techniques for a specific nation or region.

For clients seeking broader coverage, we help secure protection across multiple countries and regions, so a design is defended wherever it goes to market.
