PATENT BROKERAGE
Today, virtually every company in the technology sector views
patent purchasing as an important part of their patent portfolio
development process. This is a great advantage for operating
companies to effectively expand their portfolio, and it has created a
great opportunity for patent inventors and owners who, through a patent
sale, can finally get a real return on their creativity, hard work and
monetary investment.
While the market for good patents continues to mature and expand, it is still a young and inefficient market which puts a high premium on sellers knowing how to market, their patents effectively and a heavy burden on buyers to find, conduct due diligence and determine the right price for the patents they purchase.

purchasing opportunities every month, so they do not have time to look at all the opportunities offered them. In addition, many patent buyers, especially operating companies, are looking for patents outside of their area of technical expertise, making it challenging for them to identify those patents that might have real value.Having helped create the first ever dedicated patent purchasing program in the technology industry in the late 1990s and assisted many more companies in developing their patent purchasing programs over the last half decade, we at Epicenter have a deep understanding of the Patent Buyer Dynamic – the reasons why companies buy patents, the factors they use to determine interest and the process they use and the data they demand to establish value.
