OVERVIEW
In this session, IP Fundamentals #3, Noel will address the third stage in IP progression, theMaintenance Stage. This stage corresponds to when the company's products & the relativestatus of the competitors in the market are established.
Noel Gillespie will explore how to use & manage a mature IP portfolio to continuously create additional value for a business. Often, a company's IP portfolio can have value in other verticals/industries/markets. With proper planning early on & sound strategy when the time comes, a company can unlock these additional opportunities, through sale, licensing, enforcement, & acquisition of complementary IP. A variety of these strategies will be covered as well as how to prepare for them ahead of time so the potential can be communicated to potential investors, buyers, partners, etcetera.
Whendeveloping a plan to capture & protect a company's intellectual property (IP), it is important to understand thevarious stages involved, what stage the company is currently in, & what is coming next. There arethree important stagesthat effect how a company will develop & protect its IP portfolio. TheInitial Stagegenerally corresponds to the startup phase of the company, often before employees have been hired & before any IP has been captured or any protection sought. The second phase is theMarket Defense Stagein which the company has reached the market & now faces competition, competition that may be knocking off or otherwise making use of the company's IP. And the third stage is theMaintenance Stagethat corresponds to when the company's products & the relative status of the competitors in the market are established.
