HomeExpertiseIP Strategy

strat|egy | (noun): a plan of action designed to achieve a long-term aim.

Intellectual property is an asset – a valuable one. And like any asset, it needs to be properly managed so it can provide real value to your business.

What IP assets does your business need – where and when? How will your business create those intellectual property rights and how do you plan to use them? How should you assess the value of IP and when should you be thinking about, licensing, selling or enforcing your intellectual property rights?

Do you need to know about the IP of third parties, such as your competitors, or even potential collaborators? Who is investing in what technology or what brands and how should your business respond?

If you are not asking your self those questions, then you need an IP strategy.
