CambridgeIP

CambridgeIP's services are flexible and we focus on working with you to build cost-effective and innovative solutions using patent-based intelligence.

CambridgeIP is regularly engaged by clients to provide bespoke solutions to complex strategic needs. For such projects we spend time with the client and/or an industry expert in order to translate the project’s objectives into an appropriate research strategy; and calibrate the interpretation of our findings.

Some examples of past bespoke projects we have conducted for large corporate clients include:

• Assisting a leading FMCG client identify technologies for adoption in a new product launch with a short-timeline, complementing in-house R&D work
• Working with a leading engineering design consultancy to deliver rapid ideation for new product concepts, followed by IP Landscape® analysis to assist with FTO and White Space analysis for new concept roll-out internationally
• Developing an accelerated out-licensing strategy and tactics for a venture-backed start-up company
• Identifying technologies in adjacent market/technology spaces for transfer into our Fortunate 500 client's space - resulting in client cost reductions and improved client market share.
