Our IP Advisory framework
IP assets drive a considerable amount of value for businesses, but are often not fully understood, managed or leveraged. How these IP assets are managed is critically important to a business’ ability to realise value from them.
This requires a deep understanding of the IP portfolio, along with adequate approaches to IP protection, commercial exploitation and risk management.
Our team advises clients on strategies, processes and tools to identify, assess, manage and leverage their intellectual assets in various business scenarios for maximum impact and benefit.

We help clients to grow and optimise their IP portfolio.
- IP Scouting and Acquisitions
By identifying assets that are no longer core to their business, clients are able to reduce their overall maintenance costs while improving the quality of their portfolio.
By running a thorough evaluation, clients are able to uncover potential areas of weakness. Through our IP Scouting and Acquisition service we help identify and acquire the assets they need to improve the quality of their portfolio.
- IP Portfolio Evaluation, Alignment and Optimisation
In addition to supporting the development and maintenance of our client’s IP assets, we also support them in improving the quality and value of their portfolio. Through our Portfolio Evaluation and Alignment service, we support clients in identifying the important value of the assets they own and what assets they are maintaining which no longer serve a strategic purpose.

Leverage
${description5}
We help clients to maximise the value generated from their IP portfolio.
- IP Diligence
The IP Diligence service is aimed at the strategic review of the client’s IP risks and opportunities around a specific transaction, for example an acquisition, a loan, investment fundraise or an IP purchase. IP Diligence is a bespoke, fit-for-purpose service focused on the identification and assessment of commercial and optimisation opportunities, as well as potential risks of the IP assets in question.
- IP sales and licensing
Deloitte IP Advisory helps clients gather relevant information and provides objective data to support the evaluation of divestment opportunities and in identifying candidate IP assets suitable for sale (e.g. assets that are no longer strategic or relevant to the business). IP Advisory also supports the client’s IP monetisation strategy by identifying potential buyers and creating qualitative arguments supporting the license or sale value of the assets being divested/licensed out.
- IP Value Assessment
Our IP Value Assessment service helps clients understand the commercial value of their IP. This could be IP they are looking to acquire or IP they are looking to value for strategic business purposes like equity or debt funding.
