IP Consultancy Services
It is becoming increasingly important for companies to record, understand and take full advantage of the extent, quality and use of their intellectual assets (IA), as well as ensuring that they have clear processes and procedures in place to do so. Potential investors, purchasers and licensees require reliable information relating to ownership, scope and status of intellectual assets within a business. Given that IA can in some circumstances equate to as much as 90% of a company’s market value, it is vitally important that it is properly managed.
Our intellectual property consultants, together with our legal team, can provide a broad range of services relating to intellectual property, beyond legal and contractual issues.
Our consultants can:
- provide general advice relating to the IA of a business
- undertake initial IA audits to identify all IA owned by, licensed in by and otherwise used by the business, including rights of employees, consultants or other third parties, enabling business to identify any gaps in protection or exploitation/commercialisation potential of IA. The consultants can consequently advise whether further legal or other professional advice should be sought. Please visit the IA audit section of the website.
- create IA portfolios which can be used to help shape future business strategy, to attract potential investors or purchasers
- provide guidance on the effective use of IA, including licensing potential
- educate staff and help to create internal IP policies
- provide general IP management guidance
- work closely with our legal team to ensure that all relevant legal documentation is in place.
