What is Intellectual Property?

Any unique concepts, layouts, discoveries, inventions, and creative works created by a person or group are considered intellectual property (IP). In the past, IP protection wasn’t a huge concern. However, with information being simpler to acquire and disseminate thanks to technology nowadays, protecting your works from copycats, thieves, and infringers has become crucial for any organization. IP security is essential for more reasons than merely preventing the theft or duplication of your discoveries. It motivates everything you produce to spread and help more people without infringing on your legal rights.

Importance of Intellectual Property

90% of the S&P 500’s total assets are now made up of intangible assets. However, IP-intensive businesses seldom successfully represent their IP as a driver of company value in transactions. Instead, it is reduced to a confirmatory due diligence item that is only considered at the closing phases of a transaction after terms and value have been agreed upon.

With the aid of the Strategic Acquisition Group’s quality of intellectual Property report, businesses may more clearly communicate the entire value of their intellectual property (IP) in an M&A or finance transaction.

Solutions for Intellectual Property Strategies

Businesses need to plan strategically for intellectual property to increase the company’s worth. The legal foundation for patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets was historically explored through the prism of intellectual property strategy development. However, ownership is one component of a much broader picture in today’s highly linked and dynamic industry. Understanding the competitive landscape for associated intellectual property, as well as the goods, services, and procedures that the intellectual property supports, is also necessary to comprehend the volume and extent of a company’s intellectual property portfolio.

The Strategic Acquisition Group collaborates with you to create an intellectual property-based value creation plan consistent with your business strategy to increase enterprise value. We create value-capture plans that maximize your intellectual property assets to enhance results and fuel success, whether your company is expecting acquisition activity, raising cash, getting ready for an IPO, or assessing other market-driven activities.

Companies usually have two alternatives for obtaining capital: selling shares or borrowing money, depending on the health of their balance sheet or cash flows. However, debt is only sometimes an option for startups with IP assets, and dilution of ownership is often not optimal.

There is now a substitute method for businesses to get less costly loan financing. A business may use its intellectual property as collateral for asset-based loans, which combines proprietary IP valuation procedures and a collateral protection insurance policy. This presents a new chance for borrowers and lenders to enter a lucrative and untouched industry.
