原标题:十七种知识产权商业模式!
如果你对知识产权事务感兴趣,以下你应当阅读。知财资本有限公司(PCT Capital LLC)首席执行官雷蒙德.米理恩和拐点策略创始人兼董事总经理罗恩·劳里以《已有的和新兴的IP业务模式综述》为蓝本,简要摘编了已经成型的和正在兴起的知识产权商业模式,令人印象深刻。
1.知识产权事务交流/交易平台。类似于纽交所和纳斯达克,无论是实体或网络在线平台,促进知识产权交易交流,包括创建的基于知识产权的金融工具或类似股票的上市和交易。计划宣布创建交易交流
2.防御性专利池。有选择地获取基于防守的专利组合。
3.技术/知识产权衍生融资。由传统风险投资(VC)或私募股权公司组织,专门从事较大科技公司面临困境的非核心知识产权衍生投资运作,或者创建大型技术公司之间的合资企业,以促进技术商业化和相关联知识产权货币化。
4.基于专利的公共股指。创建基于现有的软件工具和平台正式的股票指数。
1.专利许可和诉讼公司(PLECs)。拥有一个或多个专利组合,试图开展有目标的写信活动将其专利或组合许可出去;之后对那些拒绝接受拒绝进入非排他性专利许可者,提起专利侵权诉讼。
2.机构专利聚合器/知识产权收购基金。通常作为有限合伙公司的普通合伙人的典型运作实体,以及从大型科技公司或资本市场筹集资金的运作实体。
3.知识产权 /技术开发公司。从事研发活动和知识产权创造(包括专利和专有技术) 实体,看起来就像运营一个传统公司。然而,开发出的技术不是用于生产物质产品。
4.授权代理商。作用是帮助专利拥有者找到被许可者的专业中介机构。
5.诉讼金融/投资公司。知识产权收购基金和专利许可与诉讼公司(PLECs)之间的结合机制。
6.专利经纪人。与上面所讨论的专利许可代理功能基本相同,但他们寻求帮助专利拥有者找到买家而不是被许可方。
7.基于知识产权的并购顾问。以传统的投资银行模式开展经营,就是为科技公司的并购活动提供建议,并根据整个交易的价值(或根据交易涉及的知识产权的价值按比例)收取服务费用。
8.知识产权拍卖行。就像伦敦佳士得和苏富比拍卖行在古董和艺术品市场有名的专利拍卖市场。
9.网上的知识产权/技术交流/票据交换。功能像B2B网站一样,使之成了1990′年代后期dot com繁荣期间的流行模式。
10.知识产权支持的金融家。为知识产权拥有者提供直接或中介融资,通常以贷款形式(债务融资),债务融资安全以全部或部分知识产权资产价值为担保(也就是知识产权抵押)。
11.知识产权证券化企业。作为法律顾问,协助和/或为专利所有者实施知识产权资产证券化融资交易提供资金(类似于更常见的抵押贷款支持证券)。
12.专利评级软件和服务。提供先进的专利搜索和分析软件工具,从而允许专利所有者、律师、投资者和知识产权市场其他玩家,获得单个专利或专利组合各种情报和数据点。
13.大学技术转移中介。具有知识产权开发公司、知识产权收购基金、授权代理商和/或专利经纪人的作用,但聚焦于恰当的大学技术转让(例如许可)市场。
Intellectual Property Business Models
by Duncan on September3, 2008
Here’s something that you really should read if you’re interested in the business of intellectual property.
Raymond Millien (CEO of PCT Capital, LLC) and Ron Laurie(Co-founder and Managing Director of Inflexion Point Strategy, LLC) have put together an impressive summary of current and emerging intellectual property business models over at VC Experts – A summary of established and emerging IP business models.
As you can see from the quick summary below (and I really do recommend you read the entire article which has much more depth), it is very patent-focused.
What business models would you add to more fully take into account business model focused on other types of IP?
Emerging
1. IP Transaction Exchanges/Trading Platforms – plans have been announced to create traded exchanges (whether physical or online locations) similar to the NYSE and NASDAQ where yet-to-be created IP-based financial instruments would be listed and traded much like stocks are today.
2. Defensive Patent Pools – seek to selectively acquire portfolios of patents for defensive reasons.
3. Technology/IP Spin out Financing - organized as a traditional venture capital (VC)or private equity firm, but specializing in spinning out promising on-core IP which has become "stranded" within larger technology companies, or creating joint ventures between large technology companies to commercialize the technology and monetize the associated IP.
4. Patent-Based Public Stock Indexes – the creation of formalized stock indexes based on their existing software tools and platforms.
Established
1. Patent Licensing and Enforcement Companies (PLECs) – entities that own one or more patent portfolios, attempt to license them though targeted letter-writing campaigns, and then file patent in fringement suits against those letter recipients who refuse to enter into non-exclusive licenses.
2. Institutional Patent Aggregators/IP Acquisition Funds –entities that typically operate as general partners of a limited partnership and raise money either from large technology companies or from the capital markers.
3. IP/Technology Development Companies – entities that engage in R&D activities and produce IP(including both patents and know-how) much like traditional operating companies; however, the developed technology is not used to manufacture products in the form of physical goods.
4. Licensing Agents - entities that function as intermediaries by attempting to assist patent owners in finding licensees.
5. Litigation Finance/Investment Firms – entities that are a cross between IP Acquisition Funds and PLECs.
6. Patent Brokers – entities that function essentially the same as Licensing Agent model discussed above, but that they seek to assist patent owners in finding buyers rather than licensees.
7. IP-Based M&A Advisory – entities that operate in a traditional investment banking model –advising technology companies in their merger and acquisition(M&A)activities and earning fees based on the value of the entire deal(or apportioned according to the value of the IP within the deal).
8. IP Auction Houses – entities that are attempting to do for the patent marketplace what famed London auction houses Christie’s and Sotheby’s did for the antique and art marketplace.
9. On-Line IP/Technology Exchanges/Clearinghouse – entities that function like the business-to-business (B2B) websites that be came the rage during the late 1990′sdot com boom.
10. IP-Backed Financiers – entities that provide financing for IP owners, either directly or as intermediaries, usually in the form of loans (debt financing), where the security for the loan is either wholly or partially IP assets (i.e.,IP collateralization).
11. Royalty Stream Securitization Firms - entities that counsel, assist and/or provide capital to patent owners performing IP securitization financing transactions (which resemble the more common mortgage-backed securities).
12. Patent Rating Software and Services - entities that provide advanced patent search and analytics software tools that allow patent owners, attorneys, investors and other players in the IP marketplace to obtain various intelligence and data points about a single patent or patent portfolio.
13. University Technology Transfer Intermediaries - entities that function as IP Development Companies, IP Acquisition Funds, Licensing Agents and/or Patent Brokers, but focusing on the niche university technology transfer(i.e., licensing) market.
