IP and licensing rights are strategic tools used in development, production, and collaboration and are vital for commercial ventures. Our team is well-positioned to serve any IP needs this industry may require. We understand market fluctuations and help our clients formulate valuable IP strategies in order to remain sustainable and achieve their long-term corporate objectives. Licenses, due diligence, and freedom to operate remain invaluable in this industry. Not only do we help our clients establish and maintain their IP portfolios, we help them stay diligent in recognizing the IP rights of their competitors in the event that a competitor’s IP is obtained by a non-practicing entity (NPE).
