This spring, Morningside announced an exciting milestone in the company’s journey. It was such a transformative move that we think it’s important enough to share again:
Questel, one of the world’s largest end-to-end intellectual property solutions providers, has acquired Morningside, a leading IP and language services company.
Founded in 2000 and headquartered in New York, Morningside specializes in patent translation and foreign filing solutions as well as legal, life sciences, and corporate compliance language services. With a global presence of 250 employees. Morningside has over 4,000 clients in 55 countries, including many Global 500 companies, law firms, and regulatory bodies.
The acquisition is part of Questel’s strategy to act as a one-stop shop for all of its clients’ IP needs. Since Morningside is one of the largest patent translation companies in the world, the acquisition consolidates Questel’s position as a leading IP translation provider. Morningside also has a major global law firm presence which will allow Questel to expand and diversify its customer base significantly.
“Morningside is an excellent fit for Questel both culturally and strategically,” said Charles Besson, Questel’s CEO. “Translation plays a critical role in providing end-to-end integrated IP solutions to our clients.”
What’s next?
The synergies are clear. Morningside is one of the largest patent translation providers globally, and Questel is the #1 patent filer in the world. Clients of both companies will gain from this acquisition.
Throughout the integration process, Morningside will, of course continue to provide the same best-in-class service that clients expect. But, over the coming months, Morningside’s clients will also begin to benefit from the addition of Questel’s industry-leading solutions for intellectual property, innovation management, legal tech, localization and corporate collaboration.
