Our IP Commercialization Program and Studio provides unparalleled support in realizing the potential of intellectual property through IP Strategy, IP Asset Management and supporting Go-To-Market services. Realizing that not every inventor is a nascent CEO, we help bring exceptional innovations to market, strengthen and advise science and tech teams, source investment capital and execute growth strategies. We also advise investment managers, funds, and family offices that have interest in companies with substantial intellectual property assets.
