A checklist for choosing an intermediary to ensure successful patent transactions!
Use an intermediary service to buy and sell patents! Explains how to choose a company
Accelerating innovation and increasingly global markets have made patent transactions an important component of corporate growth. Acquiring patents directly or through cross-licensing can strengthen freedom to operate, expand access to technology, and improve competitive positioning. Selling underutilized patents can convert R&D investments into revenue, place valuable technologies with organizations prepared to commercialize them, and provide capital for continued innovation. PraxisIP helps companies align patent acquisitions, sales, and licensing with their broader intellectual property and business strategies.

Choosing the Right Patent Transaction Intermediary
Selecting an intermediary for a patent sale, acquisition, or licensing transaction requires careful evaluation of the firm’s experience, technical capabilities, valuation practices, and market knowledge. Important considerations include:
- Transaction experience: The number, size, complexity, and results of completed patent transactions
- Sector expertise: Relevant technical and commercial knowledge within the industries connected to the patent
- Professional team: Experienced transaction specialists and technical experts capable of assessing patent value and market potential
