Highlight of this IP Sale
This Company was rich in IP assets but had not yet been market-tested. We conducted thorough sector research to identify a list of potential buyers that would likely see the potential of this technology, including those operating in this niche sector. Our IP expertise enables us to see all the potential applications for a portfolio of IP assets to ensure the net is cast wide to include all potentially relevant buyers.
