Overview

Why you should attend

Companies and investors have awoken to the economic potential of intellectual property ("IP").  Recent patent transactions, including the Motorola Mobility, Nortel and Novell transactions, have had a disruptive effect on the patent monetization marketplace, significantly expanding the level of interest in patents from investment firms as well as senior executives at major companies.

The IP monetization marketplace is also seeing (i) increased activity internationally, (ii) increased financial engineering of royalties and other IP revenue streams, (iii) major developments in IP law (including the passage of the America Invents Act to reform patent law) that impact monetization strategies, and (iv) the deployment of new revenue-generating models to unlock the full economic value of IP.
