Ep 83: Tamar Gomez (Ankar) - Rebuilding the Patent Journey

from Movers & Shakers · host daphni

"Innovation is critical to how we solve humanity’s most important problems… if there are no patents there is no incentive to innovate, and we realized that the flow to go from an idea to a patent was broken."In this episode, we talk with Tamar Gomez, co-founder of Ankar, a startup redefining how inventors protect and monetize their ideas, and one that daphni is proud to back.Tamar’s journey is as impressive as it is inspiring: from studying game theory at Imperial College to her time at Palantir, where she discovered how small, high-performing teams can turn data and insight into impact. It was at Palantir where she met her co-founder Wiem Gharbi, and together they uncovered a major pain point: the path from an invention to a patent was slow, fragmented, and discouraging for inventors.That’s where Ankar comes in. Their technology streamlines the entire IP lifecycle: from identifying novelty, to drafting and prosecuting patents, to detecting potential infringements, all of which empower inventors to make the most of their innovations. By leveraging AI, Ankar is making the complexity of intellectual property more transparent, efficient, and accessible.As Tamar says, innovation drives progress and Ankar is ensuring that people behind that progress get the recognition and protection they deserve.Hébergé par Audiomeans.
