Investor Confidence
Patents provide investors surety of investment in the form of a defensible, exclusive market space for their investment.
Patents Establish Your Exclusive Market Position
Adding Legal Legitimacy to Your Business
U.S. Government – A patent is a U.S. Government sanctioned exclusive right to operate in a market space which can be obtained and enforced internationally through the PCT process.
Investor and Customer Confidence
Patents add surety to the business itself, and to the exclusive market space the business owns the rights to and is actively investing in providing long-term protection, defensibility, and measurable enterprise value.
Acquisition and Partnership Value
Patents add surety of the business they are acquiring/partnering with, and the exclusive market space value they are acquiring or partnering with and planning for future business projections
Revenue Generation & Cost Protection
If you are innovating in a technology area that touches any market area in which a lot of financial investment and innovation is occurring, it is in your own best interests to invest in patents as both a revenue generation, and expense protection device.
Cross-Market Patent Leverage
Patents are licensed and sold to other businesses for a plurality of business reasons, and depending on the quality of the patent, patents are marketable beyond their intended market.
Patent Licensing & Defensive Leverage
Companies license and purchase patents from other companies, not only because they may want to manufacture or use the patented invention, but also to avoid due diligence issues when they are being acquired.
Protecting Innovation Investment
A Patent ensures that a business which expended any research and development costs on innovating in a technology area, has to be compensated if their innovation is used by anyone.
Early Patent Strategy for Maximum Leverage
Because patents are enforceable beginning with their filing date, to maximize both revenue generation potential and exclusive market space, and to avoid the 1 year public disclosure bar, it is important for a business to invest in patent protection as early as possible in the business development process.
Why Investors Value Patents
Patents provide assurance that a business owns exclusive market rights, increasing confidence, valuation, and income potential.
