Is your current patent strategy truly setting you up for successful monetization? Many companies miss out on significant opportunities by not integrating monetization planning into their patent development process from the start. Too often, companies—due to lack of experience or knowledge—hire patent attorneys who simply file patents without considering a monetization strategy, ultimately hurting the potential value of their IP.

If you’re serious about making your patents a critical business asset, Building a Patent Portfolio with Maximum Monetization Value is for you. This webinar, presented by Blueshift IP co-founder and software patent expert Robert Plotkin, explores how to create a patent portfolio that not only protects your innovations but also maximizes their value for litigation, licensing, sales, fundraising, and acquisition.

Whether you’re a startup founder, business executive, or IP professional, this webinar will guide you through:

  • Integrating Monetization Early: Understand why waiting until patent grants to develop a monetization strategy can be too late, and learn how to weave monetization considerations into your patent applications from the very beginning.
  • Strategic Focus in Patent Filings: Discover how to focus your patent applications on features that drive company value, including those found in your own products, competitors’ products, and potential acquirers’ technologies.
  • Creating “Blocking” Patents: Learn the concept of blocking patents, which can prevent competitors from entering your market and significantly enhance your patent portfolio’s value.
  • Detecting Infringement: Gain insights into choosing inventions to patent based on the ease of infringement detection, making enforcement and monetization more feasible.
  • Building with Continuation Applications: Explore how continuation applications can expand your patent protection cost-effectively, strengthening your portfolio’s monetization potential.
  • Ensuring Solid Chain of Title: Understand the importance of obtaining clear patent rights from inventors and stakeholders to avoid issues during due diligence and maximize acquisition value.
