For patent owners
What could your portfolio make possible?
Your patents represent years of investment and ingenuity. Their commercial potential may extend into markets, applications or licensing opportunities beyond your current activities. We help you explore what is worth pursuing.
Typical starting points
Start with what matters to your business.
A change in strategy
Selected patents may have a future outside your core business. A sale or licensing arrangement can create a new route to value.
Further reach for research
We help explore additional commercial opportunities for research results, alongside existing transfer and licensing teams.
Important business relationships
Where potential licensees are also customers or partners, the approach needs careful thought and clear agreement.
Capacity to do more
We can contribute specialist expertise and operational support to selected licensing activities or additional markets.
Working together
Your knowledge. Our commitment to the opportunity.
You know your technology and your priorities. We add the commercial focus and specialist resources needed to develop selected opportunities, working alongside your team.
The scope of rights, responsibilities and approach to the market are agreed together. For funded projects, the agreed development work is financed through the project. You are not asked to pre-finance that work. Project financing remains subject to assessment and agreement.
How we begin
A focused starting point.
We begin with your objectives and a selected portfolio or technology field. Confidentiality arrangements come before the exchange of sensitive information. Together, we decide whether there is a useful next step.
