Innovations, patents, and licenses
Submit an innovation proposal or acquire a license
Innovations are an important foundation for long-term success
We offer you the opportunity to benefit from our patented solutions and implement them in your innovative products.
Additionally, you have the chance to present your own innovative solutions to us through our Corporate Innovation Gateway. This pathway allows us to efficiently forward your proposals to all Bosch business areas where potential applications or collaborations may be possible.
To conduct a comprehensive and accurate evaluation of your solution, a detailed description of your innovation and its unique features is required. We will keep you continuously and transparently informed about the phase your innovation proposal is in. Once the initial phase of pre-evaluation is successfully completed, you will also be assigned a personal contact who will support you in all further phases.
Bosch operates globally and therefore registers patents in many countries. The number of applications at various patent offices, along with other factors, demonstrates the creativity of our employees and our role as a global innovation driver.
Not every one of our ideas is patented. All inventions that do not meet this hurdle are made public.
