Special Report on
Managing Intellectual Property for Product & Technology
Development
Now Shipping
The heat is on R&D to innovate and
the ability to leverage intellectual property (IP) is key. While IP
is estimated to comprise as much as 90% of corporate value, most
companies have difficulty leveraging this asset. Increased patent
activity in industry, a crowded innovation space, and costly
litigation have compounded the challenge.
Questions for
product developers include:
-
Which
innovations are truly worth the cost and effort of patenting?
-
Which
should you commercialize yourself and which should you
out-license or divest?
-
When
should you acquire or in-license another firms IP and at what
price?
-
Does
it make sense to partner? What arrangement(s) work best?
- How do you manage your IP
portfolio for maximum return on investment?
To help you find the right answers
for your organization, Management Roundtable is pleased to announce
its new Special Report on Managing
Intellectual Property for Product & Technology
Development.
