Increasingly, companies must make business decisions based on the value of intangible assets. Successfully allocating research and development funds, conducting mergers and acquisitions, negotiating licenses, and evaluating the competition all depend on a company’s ability to understand the status of its own intellectual property (IP) and the IP portfolios of others. An IP due diligence is the study of intellectual property to gain access to information that helps to inform business decisions.
Due diligence projects come in many forms and can vary widely in complexity, scope and budget. This four-part seminar series will use practical examples and guide you through the due diligence process. Each session will build on the concepts from the previous session, resulting in a comprehensive overview of the diligence process, including how it can be used to bring value to your company and inform your business strategy.
The first seminar of the Capturing Value series: A step-by-step seminar series on conducting an IP due diligence and identifying a portfolio’s potential will use real-life scenarios and anecdotes to review the basic stages and common issues encountered in a due diligence investigation, from identifying search questions and criteria, to generating usable data, and what to expect along the way.
There is no charge to attend. Due to space limitations, please register early.
