Wise investment in an IP
strategy is essential to
business success

IP Strategy helps companies navigate and leverage IP by providing value-driven, proactive programs that are co-created to reduce business risk and support strategic growth, while increasing cost certainty and peace of mind.

Applying a business consulting approach to IP issues, we combine design thinking principles with IP data and analytics to build your strategy.

Value-driven

Based on how your company defines value, we help to develop and execute a plan and a budget for IP investment that supports and drives business success and reduces manageable business risk.

Proactive

We help you build a framework and culture that ensures your regular and intentional IP investments support current and future growth areas and remain strategic, and increases cost certainty.

Co-created

Our experts work together with you to co-create an IP strategy that aligns with your success metrics to produce value, confidence in decision making, and peace of mind.
