For Investors

Reliable analyses of the property rights situation and competitive position - precise, comparable and relevant to investment.

Evaluate technology - with a clear view of IP risks and potential.

Whether in the venture phase, in technology transactions or as part of M&A processes: IP Rights are more than just formalities – they are indicators of innovative strength, barriers to entry and entrepreneurial potential. Investors want to know how strong a Patents is, how solid a portfolio is positioned – and where risks are hidden before they become relevant.

We support Investors in valuing IP in a structured way, classifying it with the competition and thinking economically: as an asset, as a strategic tool and as a decision-making criterion. Quickly, comprehensibly and with an eye for the essentials.

Your questions - our starting point

Our solutions for you

Investment decisions require reliable information – not only on the technology, but also on the strategic security behind it. We analyze the IP situation of companies and provide IP-related bases for decision-making that fit into pitch decks, due diligence reports and investment memos.
