Advise clients. Access opportunities. Avoid risk.

Gaining insight into the R&D activities and intellectual property of companies and individuals provides significant advantages for a wide range of professionals, including licensing professionals, technology transfer professionals, litigators, IP attorneys and firms, and IP advisors. The most effective, and in many cases only, way to monitor a company’s R&D efforts, is by monitoring their patenting activity — a task that has previously been challenging, if not impossible. Until now.

Developed by seasoned investors and entrepreneurs, PatentVest for Advisors provides a powerful tool to quickly, efficiently and easily search and analyze patent information. Leveraging this information, professionals have the ability to:

  • Identify and capitalize on out-licensing and in-licensing opportunities
  • Investigate companies and individuals developing similar or compatible technologies and products
  • Facilitate technology transfer
  • Advise clients and companies on their IP development
  • Easily and cost-effectively complete due diligence
  • Monitor infringement issues
  • Compare companies’ and competitors’ IP portfolios
