Early-stage companies are uniquely situated to take advantage of IP offerings as they seek to build and protect their innovations, raise capital and position their groups for growth and ultimately exit. Building focus on the IP generation, defense and monetization at the outset of a venture is critical.
At Adapt IP, our team strives to partner with early-stage ventures and investors to help craft have the real-world experience and expertise to assist clients with the challenges arising from each phase of the IP life cycle. Early-stage ventures and investors are also not always seeking to sell their IP because it is either still in early stages of prosecution at the patent office or it is critical to the business and product road map. Adapt IP can partner with innovators to generate value and partnerships to build enterprise value around their growing IP portfolios.
