Intellectual Property Program in Corporate Environment
Transition from a manufacturing to an IP-based economy requires executives to
re-think their traditional IP strategy and put higher priority on establishing
of a vigorous Intellectual Property Program, resulting in generation of Intellectual
Property assets of substantial value. However, for many enterprises establishing
and running such a Program can be prohibitively expensive. IP-MEX® Inc.
offers corporations an option to substantially reduce required costs by hiring a
part-time in-house Counsel.
Typical responsibilities of such a Counsel might be:
- Due diligence (IP audit) of Company's IP processes and existing IP portfolio
- Developing internal IP strategy, Practicies and Policies
- "Mining" and evaluating patentable ideas, running patent review committees
- Protecting trade secrets
- Preparing and managing IP budget
- Docketing and maintaining IP databases
- Managing IP outsourcing and third party IP related services
- Educating Employees and Executives on Intellectual Property
The activity of the Counsel is directed towards creating a high quality IP portfolio
which in addition to traditional applications (providing legal protection for
Company's technology, providing for licensing opportunities etc) could afford
access to low cost, non-dilutive capital by being used as collateral in commercial
financing opportunities.
