How we can help?
Portfolio Analysis
We have the expertise to suggest strategies to optimise a company’s patent portfolio and increase profitability.
Through our proprietary PQI framework, we can assess the quality of the patent portfolio and develop strategies on licensing the patents, monetising low-priority patents, and addressing other IP-related matters.
Application Scouting
We develop blue ocean strategies and advise organisations on effectively leveraging their existing technical knowledge.
We use our research expertise to determine alternate application areas in adjacent sectors for a company’s existing technologies and products to fuel their business growth.
Open Innovation
We provide suggestions on how a company can adopt a collaborative model to increase their innovation potential and accelerate high-quality developments with a lesser R&D cost.
We identify attractive opportunities for venture investments, co-development, sponsored research and other incubating ideas.
Technology Scouting
We identify emerging and disruptive technologies for R&D and innovation teams within specific industry domains.
Through our analysis, we offer a holistic overview on new technologies, including their impact on the business, ease of adoption and early entrant benefits.
