Understanding intellectual property (IP) assets in a larger context, whether your own or that of a competitor or acquisition target, can help reveal market position, identify potential threats or roadblocks to maneuver around, and expose white space and opportunities for moving forward with confidence.
Across our US, European, and UK practices, we utilize our technical skills and relationships with international third-party vendors to search prior art, literature, and relevant patents around the globe. Our IP landscaping and mapping experience enables us to summarize large volumes of information in a highly accessible and easily understood format by legal, technical, and business decision makers. But there is no substitute for human knowledge and experience when interpreting the data points and how they can be used to shape your IP business strategy within the context of the broader market. We help you understand the relative strength and breadth of your patents and whether obstacles or threats are something to challenge or to design around. With this actionable intelligence, opportunities are identified. Whether you are facing a bet-the-company decision or deliberating whether to pursue an acquisition or purchase of IP assets, these insights can greatly increase your level of success.
