Patent Brokerage
Today’s market requires substantial due diligence and analyses to achieve successful results. Our team works intelligently and cost-effectively to target potential buyers and provide them with all necessary information and services to facilitate the sale. When taking a patent portfolio to the market, we have made it easy for the potential buyers to understand how that portfolio can be used to achieve their objectives, whether to block competitors, reduce outbound license payments, or earn more revenue.
And given the current economic situation, we specialize in adapting to rapidly changing market conditions to achieve profitable results for our clients.
Poseidon Advanced IP’s team of talented and highly experienced patent monetization professionals find compatible patent buyers and sellers. Given our wide geographic presence, our contacts extend to most of the major commercial centers around the globe.
We begin by evaluating a patent portfolio’s litigation prospects. We then carry out a technical analysis, comparing the patent claims to technology in the market. The final step is employing financial modeling to evaluate the financial impact the patent could have in litigation.
Patent & Technology Licensing
Licensing is an effective way for a company to share its innovations and generate revenue. It rewards innovators for their work, investment and creativity, and funds further innovations that benefit the economy. Licensing also avoids the high costs of litigation.
Our approach to licensing leads to more efficient communications with potential licensees, and results in enhancing the potential licensees’ appreciation of the value of the patented technology. The result is a license at a better rate and with a quicker conclusion than you would otherwise get employing conventional adversarial licensing approaches.
When the use or uses of our clients’ patented technologies is more broad-based, we develop innovative licensing strategies to facilitate the licensing process for all parties. Licensing engagements like this ultimately prove quite successful.
Patent Consulting
Evidence of Use Investigation
Evidence of Use (EOU) studies are performed to identify products or services that may infringe on one or more patents and can help the client determine whether a course of action, such as licensing or litigation, is necessary. Poseidon is currently working with large global companies prepare their EOUs.
Patent Valuation
Because of our patent-litigation expertise, we evaluate portfolios from an enforcement perspective, considering issues of infringement, validity, legal damages, and encumbrances in performing valuations.
Patent Portfolio Due Diligence
Patent ownership is complex and it is critical to have an accurate inventory of what the acquisition target owns. Poseidon reduces the complexity in analyzing patent ownership, allowing the client to identify potentially millions of dollars of lost value.
General Counseling
Poseidon has extensive experience providing strategic counseling to companies of all sizes and across many industries. Our comprehensive patent strategy focuses on the client’s overall goals while controlling costs, whether this includes supporting and augmenting business operations or generating revenues. We advise our clients on ways to optimize their patent portfolios to best achieve maximum results.
