IP Monetization Report Choosing the right companies to target, in most sensible order, is an important task for patent monetization projects. Depending on patented features, however, there could be hundreds of companies to research making it more complicated and time-consuming. Wisdomain's IP Monetization Report is the result of this complex task bringing about a perfect alignment of research interests by correlating technology dependency, patent acquisitions, and litigation data from hundreds of companies participating in relevant technology space. The result is a list of target companies most aligned with monetizing patent(s). Wisdomain s IP Monetization Report goes hand-in-hand with Patent Valuation and Technology Landscape Report, which altogether serves as a powerful assessment tool for IP monetization projects. 3
Evaluation Factors for Target Scouting Technology Dependency This report analyzes citation relationships between patents. The notion of this analysis is that if the target patent receives direct citations from other patents, then the target patent is likely to be fundamental in some ways and that citing entities are likely to be building something on or around the patented technology. In many cases, frequently cited patents are purchased by the citing entities to gain technology independence or in some cases for defensive purposes. Patent s This report analyzes assignment history of all patents involved in target patent s technology area and identifies entities with acquired patents that are similar to the target patent. The notion of this analysis is that entities who frequently acquire patents are likely to have an aggressive strategy for strengthening their IP portfolios. In many cases, entities choose to purchase similar or competing patents to quickly establish a strategic position in the market. This report analyzes litigation history of all patents that are active in target patent's technology space. The notion of this analysis is that entities who were involved in infringement disputes, whether as plaintiff or defendant, typically show strong efforts in securing technology independence and strengthening IP portfolios by acquiring patents.
