IP Portfolio

From delivering the first steam turbine in 1968 to the indigenization of many components of the steam turbines, today we have crossed many milestones in establishing itself as an innovation-driven organization.

In the last decade, our Company has laid strong foundations for fundamental research and development in the field of steam turbine designs leading to several innovations and improvements. Innovation has thus been at the core of its business, and we recognise the value of our Intellectual Property (IP) in today’s business environment.

Our Company has put in the necessary measures to transform ourselves into an IP-centric organization. Apart from technical talent improvement training and sensitization sessions, focused and awareness training are some of the enablers deployed to create IP culture and nurture innovation within the organization. Triveni Turbines undertakes extensive filing of patents, design registrations, copyrights & trademarks to protect the intellectual property generated within the organization in India & abroad.
