opportunity
There has never been a more exciting time than now for IP Departments to be central to business success. Intellectual Property is already being recognized as an asset that can create real value for the businesses who own it. Boardrooms today do not ask why there should be an IP strategy? Instead the question is what is the best strategy?

challenge
Choosing an effective IP strategy and a sound implementation plan that aligns with your companys business interests can be a challenge. While IP management is becoming a complex and costly affair, the budgets of IP Departments have come under strain in the current economic situation. In this scenario, outsourcing IP functions to specialist firms has become a commonly used tactical practice. It can help reduce your IP budget, revamp IP operations and re-deploy freed-up resources to more strategic initiatives. However, as you go about doing it, you end up dealing with multiple IP service providers, each providing different levels of functionality, transparency, responsiveness, conflict of interest policies, pricing models, and data security capabilities. Stitching these attributes together and tailoring them to align with your business context could be a daunting prospect. The result? You may not be able to reap maximum business value from your IP assets.

the need

You need an accountable IP Management firm which takes ownership of the complete lifecycle of your IP assets. It should treat your business goals as its own, as if it were a part of your organization, and deliver measurable outcomes albeit at substantially lower costs.
