Empowering Pioneers in Discovery

Minesoft is a collective of minds united by our passion for discovery. We have over 25 years of experience, research, and innovation with a goal to connect the world with intelligence that powers progress. Harnessing the power of modern technology, our patent intelligence solutions enable today’s pioneers to make their own discoveries at speed and with accuracy, enabling them to focus on developing world-enhancing innovations.

Whether it’s revolutionising the transportation sector with innovative electric vehicles or expediting the distribution of life-saving medications, our goal is to drive monumental advancements by tapping into the limitless potential of human creativity.

We are committed to supporting our local community from our headquarters in Richmond-upon-Thames, by getting involved with the Business Improvement District projects to enhance Richmond’s commercial district. The team is always on hand to volunteer for events to help keep our borough clean, such as local litter picks and the annual paddle boarding litter pick on the Thames, as well as supporting our local businesses.

In 2022, Minesoft closed on a substantial growth investment from MLM 2, an information services and software platform, and Warburg Pincus, a leading global growth investor. This significant growth investment is expected to accelerate the development of new products and enhance existing products with analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.
