Introduction

In a dynamic and increasingly complex commercial landscape in which technological horizons are constantly expanding, capturing value from intellectual capital and knowledge-based assets is becoming increasingly important.

Businesses today need effective strategies in place for managing their IP portfolios and ensuring that the IP they and their employees create is both protected and, where appropriate, marketable. The successful commercialisation of know-how and technology through sale and licensing is achieved through accurate portfolio valuation and careful and thorough negotiation of agreements by specialist lawyers.
