Patent für die Goalscape-Zielkarte genehmigt

Wir freuen uns, Ihnen mitteilen zu können, dass wir am 14. Juli 2015 die formale Genehmigung für unseren Antrag auf ein Patent auf das Goalscape-Zielkartenformat und die Software erhalten haben, unter Patent Nr. . Without going too deeply into the technical definitions, this patent acknowledges Goalscape Software GmbH's ownership of the multi-level pie chart to display the subgoals required to achieve a goal, with the size of each subgoal slice representing its relative importance and shading representing progress; together with a method, a system and a computer program to develop a strategy and manage resources. And of course Goalscape can be used to represent any information structure in a strict hierarchy! This has been a long process: we filed the original application nearly 8 years ago and we are very grateful for the excellent recent input from our New York patent attorney Bill Botjer in bringing this to a successful conclusion. While this represents a significant legal protection, the real acknowledgement of the value of Goalscape is in the fact that we just passed another milestone: 15,000 Goalscape users, with sales still accelerating. This means that our unique format and the functionality in the Goalscape software are spreading rapidly among individuals and organizations all over the world. Thanks to all at Goalscape Software GmbH – and to all our customers! UPDATE: Das Patent von Goalscape Software wurde unangefochten bis 2024 verlängert.
