Market Opportunity

Ocean Tomo reports that in 2010, 80% of the value of most companies is in their Intellectual Property. In fact, the amount of intangible asset value has increased from 17% in 1975 to 80% in 2010. The IP business is an active market that is undergoing a major transformation and provides growth opportunities. According to Navi Radjou of Forrester Research, “U.S. firms annually waste $1 trillion in underused intellectual property assets by failing to extract the full value of that property.” Many companies need a trusted partner to help them maximize the value of their R&D investments and the IP assets they produce. Inventergy’s holistic approach and collaborative business model is believed by management to have the potential to become an industry standard in IP value creation processes. Inventergy can help identify intellectual property assets within companies that may no longer be strategically important to the originating company, but critical to others. Inventergy can bring its expertise to evaluate which potential licensees to target and can help leverage the significant value contained in IP assets. Inventergy believes in the value of building long-term relationships and seeks to work with select companies to generate longer-term value. Inventergy knows that innovation is crucial to the global economy and its management brings expertise in patent licensing, technology licensing, brand licensing, and standards based licensing and patent sales & acquisitions, having executed deals in prior roles throughout the world.

 

Investment Approach & Objective

Inventergy’s professional corporate licensing approach combines experience, transparency, and a strong commitment to high ethical standards. Inventergy develops strong client relationships with industry leaders in key technology areas with potentially untapped IP assets, seeking to acquire high quality IP portfolios developed by professional IP organizations. Inventergy enables companies to obtain greater value for such IP assets, beyond value created directly from product or service revenue or internal IP monetization efforts.

Distinctive Strategy

 

Inventergy seeks to build relationships based on trust, transparency, and shared opportunity. It is creative about licensing structures, able to deliver greater value for all participants. The Company engages on various levels with potential licensees, exploring legal, financial and business ramifications. Inventergy strives to make realistic, objective, long-term assessments & valuations as key ingredients in its overall strategy. In addition, it aims to obtain superior value in a reasonable timeframe with manageable levels of risk. Inventergy seeks the right balance of best total expected value, moderate assertion cost & time and risk as opposed to either low aggression or high aggression approaches to IP monetization that can have high assertion costs, long time to revenue, or potential for sub-par revenue realization.

 

Inventergy plans to acquire additional IP asset portfolios through strategic relationships with significant industry-leading companies, with an emphasis on technology leaders who may be either moving out of markets or may have IP assets that exceed what they need in their core businesses. Inventergy’s flexible business model emphasizes flexibility over a rigid ‘one size fits all’ approach. Inventergy’s strategy has three pillars:

 

-      Execution: Deploying a corporate licensing style that can yield appropriate return on investment, while avoiding the excesses of over-aggression.

-     Acquisition: Developing longer-term client relationships with a small number of large corporations; ideally resulting in better assets and improved deal structures.

-     Funding: Using both debt and equity to fund acquisitions and support operations, while using various flexible, shared risk models with IP-savvy service providers to help shorten execution time and align interests.

 

Patent Portfolios

 

Inventergy has a portfolio of more than 750 patent assets globally. It has acquired significant portfolios from Huawei, Panasonic and recently, Nokia.

 

-      Huawei has previously never outsourced IP-commercialization, but selected Inventergy as a strategic partner for a sizable portfolio of important IP in Telecommunications Infrastructure.

-      Acquired 500 patent assets from Panasonic generally related to 3G and 4G mobile communications and covers technology from Base Station Equipment to End User Equipment Devices and the Service Provisioning and other processes between them.

-      Recently acquired 83 patent assets from Nokia that enhance and expand the Huawei portfolio.

 

Growth Strategy
