Abstract:
Building a patent portfolio is much more than filing patent applications on your inventions.  At its best, a patent strategy coordinates technology development with corporate strategy, market opportunity and competitor analysis.  A strong patent portfolio gives a company a competitive advantage by creating a zone of exclusion for the valuable features of your product. Patents also protect your freedom to operate by providing defensive and offensive assets against those who would assert their patents against you.  A well conceived patent strategy makes your company attractive to investors.  They also can be monetized through licensing opportunities.
