Patents, Profits, and Pitfalls: Avoiding the Costliest Mistakes in U.S. Intellectual Property Strategy

Image
  Intellectual property is not merely a legal asset—it's a financial instrument. Yet many U.S. companies fail to treat patents with the same rigour they apply to revenue forecasting, M&A strategy, or cost optimization. This negligence isn’t passive oversight. It reflects a deeper issue: patents are often disconnected from financial planning and operational strategy. According to a 2024 IP Value Benchmarking Study, fewer than 12% of corporate patent portfolios generate direct revenue. That means the vast majority represent sunk costs—money spent on filing, maintenance, and legal fees without monetization. For More Updates,  Click Here.

Revealed: 8 Legal Loopholes 5G SEP Owners Exploit to Dominate the Global Race

Image
  Standard‑essential patent (SEP) owners deploy a strategy of aggressive declaration to the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and 3GPP standard‑setting records. Many portfolios list tens of thousands of declared patent families, yet independent studies show only a fraction meet true essentiality tests. That discrepancy allows owners to wield inflated negotiating power while implementers face uncertainty about actual relevance. Canadian manufacturers participating in global supply‑chains must recognize this tactic early. For More Updates,  Click Here.

SEP Verification Explained: The $100 Billion Standards Battle Brands Can’t Ignore

Image
  Standard Essential Patent (SEP) verification impacts every company that builds to or uses technical standards. Brands that neglect this verification expose themselves to costly litigation, unexpected licensing fees, and reputational risk. In Canada and globally, courts, regulators, and patent holders have escalated the enforcement of SEP rights. Once a patent becomes “standard essential,” implementers lose flexibility. They must either license on FRAND (Fair, Reasonable, Non‑Discriminatory) terms or defend challenges over validity, essentiality, or royalty base. Verification ensures legitimacy, protects innovation, and prevents abusive practices. For More Updates, Click Here.
