Whatever the size of a client's commercial operation
they may benefit from an IP Healthcheck.

We can help identify areas of risk, whether it be from
third party intellectual property impinging on
commercial activities, or from the problems
surrounding ownership of intellectual property
developed internally or as a result of sub-contracted
work. Once areas of risk have been identified we can
advise on prioritising those risks and implementing
mitigation strategies.

We also identify areas of opportunity and we have
experience of helping clients to put processes in place
to initially help identify valuable intellectual property.
We can then suggest techniques to assist in the decision
making process on whether or not it makes commercial
sense to protect the identified intellectual property.

We can help clients implement systems to monitor the
progress of any applications made relating to that
intellectual property. These systems may be based on a
client's existing information system or through remote
access to our own information systems. In situations
where a client uses their own information systems, we
can provide regular data updates from our own
systems or directly update our client's systems if that
is more convenient.

We can also assist in monitoring the activities of your
competitors and to help provide strategic advice on
how best a client may exploit their intellectual property
to achieve their business goals.
