Highlight of this IP Sale
This assignment was of a highly specialist nature with the Company operating in a niche space. We identified a number of critical IP assets that were at risk of being overlooked by a purchaser, but that we identified as being critical. Our sector research enabled us to identify numerous potential buyers of this unusual portfolio, which resulted in a competitive bidding process and us securing a much higher than expected return.
