Connect IP
seeks always to build strong two way relationships
with clients as this is vital to delivering value.
Through close collaboration and trusting partnership
Connect IP
is able to undertake important and commercially
sensitive assignments. Delivering greater value
from knowledge takes many forms apart from intellectual
property licensing or patent
licensing. We have extensive practical commercial
experience in many key areas and have successfully
undertaken assignments for major UK and international
businesses and much smaller companies.
We are comfortable with undertaking 'one-off' assignments or with providing a retained service with appropriate resources to match the level required.
Examples of the types of assignments covered include for example:
| |
- Undertaking intellectual property audits
and developing IP portfolios;
- Aligning the IP portfolio with the company's
corporate and intellectual property strategy;
- Managing IP Portfolios
- Developing intellectual property
strategy;
- Reviewing business processes (eg
HR, procurement, engineering and R&D)
for IP effectiveness;
- Devising and undertaking IP development
& awareness workshops within businesses;
- Assisting in business development
through licensing & joint venturing;
- Intellectual property valuation
to help position goodwill in acquisitions,
mergers and disposals;
- Intellectual property licensing
and in particular patent licensing;
- Preparing for & undertaking patent
licensing negotiations on behalf of clients,
as leader or supporter;
- Helping to devise and implement
commercially appropriate IP enforcement
strategies.

Because Connect IP is a small organisation it is highly flexible but size is not a constraint on the skills available. Where appropriate Connect IP is able to bring to bear specialised skills in law and accountancy for example through its associated organisations who include not only small bespoke practises but also several among the biggest in Europe. Where we think that it is appropriate to use the additional services of our associates, selection in all cases is based on the nature of the problem and desired outcome.
If you are contemplating extending
your business outside the UK either through acquisition,
joint venture or patent licensing or other intellectual
property licensing we have associates in several
countries, particularly in
korea and Japan.
