About Skriptor

Skriptor started in 1966 as an interdisciplinary project, combining language and linguistics with mathematics and computer science. In 1970 Skriptor created the world’s first phonetic trademark search system for the Swedish Patent Office. The idea of combining trademark search and clearance competence with brand name creation was developed during the 1980′s and when Name Creation was set up as a separate unit in 1986, it was an immediate hit. Skriptor was soon established as Scandinavia’s leading naming agency and in the 1990′s also as one of the world’s very few pharmaceutical naming specialists, serving clients world wide.
