Patent Commercialization: Buying, Selling, and Licensing
A patent’s true value is realized when it is effectively commercialized. We assist clients in unlocking the financial potential of their patent assets through strategic transactions. Our services include:
- Buying and Acquiring Patents: We represent clients in the strategic acquisition of patents and patent portfolios, whether as a standalone transaction or as part of a larger merger or acquisition. Our process includes rigorous due diligence to assess the strength, validity, and enforceability of the target patents, ensuring you acquire assets that are valuable and free from hidden liabilities.
- Selling and Divesting Patents: For clients looking to monetize their existing patent assets, we facilitate the sale and divestiture process. We help identify potential buyers, value the portfolio, and negotiate terms that maximize your return on investment.
- Licensing and Permission: We structure and negotiate patent licensing agreements that allow you to grant others permission to use your technology in exchange for royalties or other considerations. We craft clear, enforceable cross-border agreements that precisely define territories, usage rights, and compliance with international regulations, protecting your interests while creating new revenue streams.
