The Good, The Bad and The Ugly of IP Monetization

Patents are one of the more critical assets of an organization, but 90% of patents never get commercialized, highlighting the need for a patent monetization strategy. This could include selling a patent, earning patent royalties, licensing a patent, patent pooling, or proving that your patent is a standard-essential patent.

In this presentation, led by Dr. Elvir Causevic, Managing Director and Co-Head of the Tech+IP Advisory Practice of Houlihan Lokey, we explore best practices in corporate IP monetization strategies and discuss the successful ways that the Tech+IP Advisory practice has applied an M&A-like process to patent monetization.

During the presentation, we:

Discuss critical considerations for corporate boards and their patent strategy
Provide an overview of the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of IP monetization
Review specific case studies focusing on best practices and what not to do
Explain the Tech+IP Advisory process for approaching IP strategy
Also, a brief Q&A session
