Generating & Managing an IP Portfolio

What is an IP Portfolio?

  • An IP portfolio is a strategic collection of intellectual assets such as patents, industrial designs, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, etc.
  • IP portfolio management is the strategic handling of an organization’s intellectual assets to turn innovation into long-term values.
  • It covers identifying, protecting, maintaining, and reviewing assets such as patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets.
  • Rather than just owning IP, the focus is on aligning it with business goals, market needs, and growth plans.
