Communicating Patent Risk to the C-suite: Aligning Corporate and IP strategy
Key points:
- The main challenges when communicating patent risk include the absence of objective and reliable data and the lack of understanding
of patents at board level - Building a strong patent portfolio is the primary approach to patent risk mitigation, but only as part of a holistic risk strategy
- Tier threats into groups and assess their propensity to litigate
