Our consulting services range from strategic alignment to implementation within corporate processes. We always focus our view on overall utility to our clients. This is because IP potentials – which can be the equivalent of hard cash – can be detected and developed particularly within the complex interactions of property rights, technologies and the competitive situation. The PATEV basic workshop smoothes the road to letting clients’ innovations make a contribution to their business success. Additional questions in regard to IP management often turn up in this first step and we answer them together. Such questions might involve aligning portfolios with the competitive technological environment, expanding utilization rights, optimizing our assignment of licenses to third parties or establishing an IP relationship management system for R&D, sales and executive management.
