Assumed:

Patented Medical Cannabis innovation is the only way to get from the lab to the patient.

Quality rational informed decisions on creation, management and defence of patents separate wealth creation from financial wastage.

Decisions :

1.What line of research ?2. Patent or not ?3. Exclusive Rights?4.Litigation?5. Licensing?6. Enforcement?

Why Make the Effort to Value Patents ?

Putting a $ Price on Patents concentrates and informs your crucial decisions.

Example : Company A owns a patent. Company B offers X $ .

How does company A know that the patent is not worth 10X $ ? (!!!)

Example : Company A has pivoted. What to do with the old patent portfolio ? Abandon ? Maintain ?

Example : Company A’s patent is infringed. How much to demand from infringer ?

Our clients engage us to value patents that they wish to buy, sell, license , monetize, enforce or transact.

The PROCESS of valuation is as important as the final figure to the stakeholders (see next page….)
