IP Portfolio Management

The business environment that you and your company operates in changes all the time, so it is imperative that your IP protection is monitored and managed.

Remaining active in the management of your portfolio can help to make sure it maintains its effectiveness.

IP Portfolio Audits

An Intellectual Property portfolio audit analyses the rights in your current portfolio, and examines the strength of those rights and their usefulness to your business. An IP portfolio audit can:

  • check that your IP rights have been maintained correctly
    (renewal payments have been made, address changes, title changes)
  • review existing registered IP rights to assess whether they should be maintained
  • help to identify and protect innovations within your company
  • provide guidance on possible sources of new IP rights
  • identify gaps in IP protection, and
  • identify potential sales of IP rights or licensing opportunities

Our approach

At Sandersons we want to help you develop a strategy that works for your business.

By working closely with you, our team can help to identify areas in which you could develop and effectively protect your intellectual property.

Your IP protection needs will change as your business does. By maintaining a strong relationship with you, we can make sure your IP rights continue to support your business growth.

Aligning assets with business goals

Conducting an IP portfolio audit as a part of the management of your IP portfolio can ensure that your assets align with overall business goals.
