By identifying key information for licensing opportunities, we help clients understand the pros and cons of licensing patents. Whether a company seeks to license patents to another company (inbound licensing) or seeks to license patents from other companies (outbound licensing), our clients benefit from our hands-on experience and propriety tools to make the best licensing decisions. We work with companies in all spaces, including the technology space, which is rife with patent licensing agreements. For instance, smartphones comprise an entanglement of licensing agreements between technology companies. Without these licensing agreements, smartphones would not have the capabilities they offer today. The companies behind the technology (e.g., Apple, Samsung) use this tactic to incorporate software into their technologies for better functioning products without spending the time and money on research and development efforts. Further, licensing patents often help to settle disputes in the instance of infringement. In addition, licensing patents helps companies reach beyond their core business without incorporating additional costs, such as manufacturing.
