Value-based patent management by PATEV
 Stem the value drain for your innovations!

How effectively does your patents portfolio protect your own inventions and technological developments? Do you have the right patents? Are your investments in patent protection commensurate with the values involved?

The PATEV approach is to convert innovative output into patents and to close up any gaps in your own portfolio of patents, all in the interest of claiming unquestionable title to innovations. Only patents that satisfy this need have the potential to generate significant added value for the company. The purpose of value-based patent management is to systematically increase the likelihood of integrating into the portfolio precisely those patents that will contribute the greatest value.

We have developed a consulting approach which – after tailoring it to suit your specific business situation – may include the following aspects:

• Examining and analyzing the strategic relevance of the patents in the portfolio

• Evaluating the value-addition potentials of the patents in the portfolio

• Working out the associated decision-making criteria and processes

• Portfolio depiction in a manner suitable for value-based patent management, including identifying required fields of action

• Integration of open innovation (licensing in / licensing out)

• Anchoring the results in corporate strategies

PATEV helps to ensure that you have actually acquired all the rights to your innovations and that none are missing. You can boost the amount of value generated by your innovations by securing the corresponding patent rights and systematically expanding them.
