INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY STRATEGIES FOR VC AND PE INVESTORS

Currently, there are few viable options for easily transferring IP. The Ocean Tomo Patent/Bid-Ask (P/B-A) platform was created to address this problem.  P/B-A is the first web- and voice-enabled marketplace that allows buyers and sellers to submit offers to buy (“Bids”) and sell (“Asks”) any of the 33 million plus patent assets, or any combination thereof, across 81 countries and patent-issuing authorities in a completely transparent fashion.
This discussion explores how P/B-A: 
-Provides an alternative method for transferring IP assets 
-Increases transparency on a global basis for IP transactions 
-Reduces legal expenses involved with transactions 
-Allows for flexible deal structures

Facilitating a Global IP Market: OT’s Newest Transaction Platform

-Allow owners of IP to more efficiently monetize IP assets 
-Provide IP owners access to risk management tools 
-Allow investors access to a new universe of trading, investment, and arbitrage opportunities
By creating a liquid market for IP assets, implementing contract standardization, and providing market participants with access to market data, IPXI will facilitate a deeper understanding of the economics of innovation.
