Our IP audit service offers a systematic review of your portfolio to reveal hidden opportunities and address gaps.
We combine deep expertise in IP, technology licensing, brand protection and disputes with commercial understanding. Clear and pragmatic advice enables you to safeguard sensitive information, ensure clear ownership, and license and monetise IP.
How we help:
- Cataloguing all existing IP assets, such as patents, trade marks, copyright works and trade secrets, to understand what the business currently holds.
- Ensuring clear ownership and authorship of IP assets to reduce the risk of disputes.
- Evaluating the economic value of IP assets to understand their contribution to the business and identify underutilised assets for additional revenue.
- Identifying potential risks, such as IP infringement or lapses in protection and providing strategies to mitigate these risks.
- Offering insights on how to enhance the value of IP assets through commercialisation, licensing opportunities, and improvements in IP management practices.
- Identifying potential new IP that could be created and protected, aligning IP strategy with business growth and innovation goals.
