The Licensing Process: Unlocking Innovation with OhmIQ 

In the rapidly evolving world of water heating technology, OhmIQ is leading the charge in transforming the industry through its groundbreaking ohmic heating solutions. Central to this transformation is OhmIQ’s licensing process: A carefully structured framework designed to bring its patented technology to partners across various industries. This strategic approach allows companies to integrate innovative heating solutions into their products while maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency.  

Why Licensing Matters 

Licensing plays a crucial role in expanding technological advancements beyond a single company. By licensing our patented Ohmic Array Technology (OAT), OhmIQ enables manufacturers and product developers to enhance their offerings with precision heating technology, delivering energy-efficient, corrosion-free solutions to consumers worldwide. 

Licensing also ensures that products utilizing OhmIQ’s technology adhere to strict performance and quality guidelines. This safeguards the integrity of the technology while allowing partners to scale their product lines efficiently. Additionally licensing helps save resources because the technology development is done by OhmIQ, which means speed to market with innovation is faster, which means attracting new partners becomes easier. This improves profitability and gives the licensee a competitive advantage. 

The Licensing Process 

OhmIQ’s licensing process is designed to be seamless and collaborative, fostering innovation while maintaining industry standards. Here’s how it works: 

• Insights: Via research, interviews and network connections we identified markets in which we know OhmIQ technology can make a big difference. Through the end-consumer needs we make the product value proposition which will become the initial set of requirements for our innovation.

• Innovation & Collaboration: The innovation team starts working on a Proof of Concept (PoC). In most cases we do this in collaboration with industry experts who can provide us with far more detailed requirements and market knowledge.

• Integration: We turn the POC into a prototype to integrate into the product of our development partner. Generally this involves a, to be discussed, payment by the development partner. In case we go all the way to a licensing deal, this “commitment fee” is an initial downpayment. If we don’t, this money compensates for our services.

• Implementation: The full licensing fee starts, while bringing the integrated prototypes to manufacturing product level. This can be either with the licensee or with an Authorized Manufacturer Distributor (AMD), depending on who will do manufacturing.

• Account Management: Handling the accounts with the licensees and potentially AMD’s, including multi-level audits. Not just financial audits, but also quality audits to ensure the quality reputation of Ohmiq remains intact.
