Strategic Patent Value Creation & Portfolio Development

Investment in early stage patent combined with well tailored value creation methodology can develop a new patent for monetization. Many patent applications can be further developed for creating new economic values by amending claims to encompass market demand. By auditing clients' current patent portfolios, TechIPm can find a good candidate for value creation. By consulting detail descriptions in conjunction with market demand, TechIPm can develop new claims covering new economic value creating business models. TechIPm also can provide an expert advice for the development of patent portfolios through a careful analysis of the emerging technology trends and the IP landscape. TechIPm's patent portfolio consulting service delivers an analysis for the current patent portfolio status and future directions in alignment with client's monetization program development. TechIPm also provide patent prosecution services for international IP portfolios, especially for IPR in US, S. Korea, Japan, China, and India.

Standard Essential Patents Evaluation & Development

TechIPm's standard essential patenst consulting service delivers the analysis for the evaluation of potential standard essential patent (SEP) candidates and future IPR directions in alignment with the standardization process. TechIPm can also develop a SEP with participating in the standardization activities. Sometimes, developing SEPs without participating in the standardization activities is possible because some of key aspects of the technologies adopted during the standardization process can already be developed by a third party who is not the participating member of the standardization activities. Thus, if the third party filed a patent covering the technologies adopted as the standard, he or she can further develop it though claim development and patent prosecution process to be a SEP.
