In licensing can be compared to finding a needle in a haystack. Your odds of success drop at every successive stage despite an increasing investment of time and resources, from scouting potential targets, screening them, conducting in depth evaluations of the technology and synergies with your company, and negotiating with the owner. How can you improve your process and success rate?

ipCapital has extensive experience providing leadership, support, and education to our clients on methods that will help them improve internal processes, secure better in licensing deals, and integrate new IP successfully into their businesses. Specifically, we address the needs of clients who have in licensing programs or are looking to develop them, by offering services and custom consulting in the following areas:

• Finding better targets on a global scale with suitable and strong IP
• Screening the list of potential targets for “fit,” IP position, and stage of development
• Evaluating potential targets, including portfolio assessments, patent strength, and IP valuation models
• Support for approaching potential targets and negotiating
• Developing and launching an In Licensing Program, including IP strategy, staff education, methodology development, and software tools
• Integrating new IP into the company’s portfolio, particularly building synergies, strengthening the IP by inventing around and on top of it, and developing IP strategies
