In today’s innovation-driven economy, a company’s most valuable assets often aren’t physical—they’re intangible. Intellectual property (IP) such as patents, proprietary technology, data, trade secrets, software or a reputable brand often form the backbone of a competitive advantage. Yet, many businesses lack a clear, objective view of the strength and protection of their IP portfolio.

That’s where the IPSCORE comes in.

An IPSCORE is a comprehensive benchmarking tool that evaluates the extent, quality, and protection of a company’s IP portfolio. It helps businesses understand how their IP benchmarks against their peers, as well as how well it’s protected, how strategically it’s managed, and where improvements can be made.

The process identifies gaps in IP protection, weak enforcement risk, and underleveraged assets, which then delivers tailored company-specific recommendations to enhance IP management and protection. This is especially critical for companies entering a scale-up or expansion phase, where demonstrating IP maturity is key to building investor and lender confidence.

For investors and lenders, a strong IPSCORE signals that the company is serious about protecting its core assets, managing risk, and creating long-term value. For companies, it’s a strategic asset—supporting capital raising, improving internal controls, and reinforcing their market position.

If you’re preparing for growth, M&A, or financing, now is the time to get your IP house in order.

The IPSCORE is the perfect place to start.
