Anaqua, a world leader in intellectual property (IP) management technology solutions, announces the acquisition of RightHub, an innovative UK platform specializing in IP management software and services. This strategic operation marks a new stage in Anaqua's expansion, strengthening its presence in Europe, particularly in the UK. RightHub, designed to meet the needs of law firms and mid-sized companies, brings to this acquisition native artificial intelligence expertise, offering tools such as AI-assisted analysis, automated patent application drafting and collaborative IP process management.
The integration of RightHub enables Anaqua to enrich its portfolio of solutions, while maintaining RightHub as a distinct brand, complementary to its existing platforms: AQX (the main platform for large corporations and law firms) and Pattsy Wave (a smaller solution for medium-sized to small law firms, as well as in-house legal departments). Toni Nijm, co-founder and CEO of RightHub, will join Anaqua's management team, bringing his extensive experience in the field of IP management. "I am delighted that Toni will bring his industry experience and expertise to Anaqua as a member of our management team. This will be a tremendous asset for both our employees and our customers", added Justin Crotty, CEO of Anaqua.

Its platforms integrate optimized workflows, advanced data analytics and technology services to optimize the lifecycle of patents, trademarks and inventions.
