IP managers can be quick to realize that while individual patents can be important, the real value may lie in a patent portfolio. This is true for their own portfolios, or that belonging to a partner or competitor. NPA™ patent analysis can provide an objective comparison of patent portfolios in nominated technology areas. This can assist when considering acquisition targets and other investment decisions. In addition to a direct comparison of patent portfolios, NPA™ patent analysis can rank individual patents within a portfolio, helping to provide IP managers with the knowledge they need to make decisions about investing or divesting the range of patents in their portfolio.

  • Understand the inter-dependencies between competing portfolios;
  • Determine the strengths and weaknesses of one or more portfolios for future product strategy.
