VALUATION
Intellectual Property Valuation
If you are the proud owner of intellectual property rights (including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets), you may be interested in selling or licensing your rights to a third-party. Or you may be seeking capital from an investor who would like to know the estimated value of your IP assets before investing in your business endeavor.
