Strategic IP Assessor™ 1.0 – An Invention Review Checklist

Protect Intellectual Property Right

Welcome to Strategic IP Assessor™ 1.0 – an invention review checklist from Center For Advantage™. The purpose of this checklist is to supplement your existing invention review process by emphasizing strategic aspects of intellectual property decision making.

The end goal of any business, with regards to intellectual property, is to effectively control as much technical space of value as possible within the limits of available resources allocated to intellectual property protection. This means that you want to obtain the best possible patents on those inventions that provide critical advantages to your business while also leveraging other business advantages that can protect your intellectual property in other ways. This also means that you do not want to expend resources to obtain patents that you or an affiliate are unwilling or unable to defend, nor expend resources to obtain patents which do not provide a business advantage to you or a business advantage to another organization from which you could obtain royalties or technical trades.

Strategic IP Assessor™ 1.0 is available for you to use without charge when used on this website. You may also link to this website through your own website for ease of access. See Terms of Use.
