Patent Valuation Patent Prosecution

Patent Valuation Service by IPTEC, taking future uncertainties into account and based on theories of options and the Black-Scholes Model, provides the potential value of the target patent or technology. The assessment is multi-dimensional, including Patent & Technology Pricing for the economic value, Patent & Technology Analysis for the development of related art, Patent & Technology Evaluation for the technological strength, and Patent & Technology Due Diligence for the legal status. IPTEC has applied for international patent protections for systems and methods used in its Patent Valuation.

Four Procedures for Patent Valuation

Patent & Technology Pricing ¡Ð Economic Value
Considering future uncertainties, the economic value of the target patent or technology is assessed by IPTEC's innovated Patent & Technology Pricing System (PTPS). The assessed value may be used for calculating the license fee, pledge or collateral.
