In today’s competitive high-tech industry, intellectual property or “IP” is a critical and valuable asset that should be mined, protected and leveraged as part of a company’s overall business strategy. It is a commercial necessity for technology companies both large and small to develop an in-depth IP portfolio, encompassing company technology, software, business methods and other intellectual assets, as well as patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets.
Potomac Technology Law + Policy has the business expertise and legal experience to establish a comprehensive IP program for your organization.
Along with a strong IP portfolio, it is imperative that technology companies implement a comprehensive IP strategy to protect and leverage innovation and intellectual assets, and to maximize the return on IP investments. We can provide the necessary services for the establishment of a comprehensive IP program, including:
- Mining your company’s technology and business processes to systematically assess potential for patents and other IP protection;
- Protecting your company’s technology and intellectual assets through a strategic IP program; and
- Leveraging the resulting intellectual property rights in the marketplace from both offensive and defensive perspectives.
Protecting IP can provide leverage and defenses against competition and add additional asset-value for your company’s bottom line. A truly strategic approach to IP management must span technical conception to commercial release and beyond, and technology development and IP management should be intertwined to facilitate the protection of core company assets.
We can help your company maximize the value and potential of your IP within the boundaries of realistic budget constraints compelled by today’s economic environment.
