IP Monetization:
Transforming IP Into Performance
At Invenio, we believe intellectual property is more than a legal shield—it’s an underutilized engine of growth and value creation. Our IP Monetization practice empowers innovators, funders, and business leaders to proactively deploy, monetize, and strategically align their IP assets with business objectives, turning innovation into revenue. We work hand-in-hand with innovators, investors, and founders to uncover assertable, saleable, and partnership-ready assets; conduct thorough diligence and risk assessments; and build the operational frameworks to support IP-driven transactions. For clients ready to unlock real value from their IP investments—whether through licensing, litigation, innovation partnerships, or IP-driven financing—Invenio stands as your strategic partner for every stage of the journey.
What We Do
Strategic IP Portfolio Assessment
We advise on the design and negotiation of direct lending, asset-based finance, and other private credit deals, ensuring every transaction is tailored to your risk profile and objectives.
Monetization Program Design
We source, evaluate, and develop tailored licensing, assertion, and enforcement programs—whether focused on royalty generation, defensive positioning, or value harvesting in transactions.
Technology Ecosystem Intelligence
Central to our approach is a deep understanding of the technology ecosystems in which our clients operate. We look beyond individual patents to map the broader innovation landscape—identifying companies solving similar problems, operating in adjacent technology clusters, or building synergistic products. This ecosystem intelligence allows us to evaluate patent value in its real-world context, uncover whitespace and strategic opportunities, and spot potential partners, acquirers, licensees, or targets for assertion that others miss.
Deal Structuring and Transactions
Our team structures and negotiates IP-centric deals, including technology transfers, joint ventures, patent pool participation, and IP-backed financings. We ensure deals are rigorously constructed to safeguard value and align incentives.
Litigation and Enforcement
We enforce and defend IP rights in high-stakes disputes, often leveraging litigation finance or insurance-backed risk management where appropriate.
Partnerships and Ecosystem Building
We help clients identify and pursue strategic partnerships, alliances, and standards work to deploy IP assets productively—crossing boundaries between business, technology, and law.
