Deloitte Legal provides a wide range of commercial IP services, helping to drive value and growth by assisting with IP transactions as well as the capture, protection, management and enforcement of IP assets.
Achieving better legal and business outcomes, and better corporate returns
Deloitte Legal can help you with the discovery, protection and
management of intangible value. We combine global legal knowledge and
experience in intangibles with business thinking and technology to deliver a
comprehensive suite of services and solutions that increase corporate returns
and value.
How we support you
Discover - Identify intangible sources of value and understand how they underpin the business and drive corporate value/returns;
Protect - File, monitor and enforce IP rights where needed while using a broader set of controls (e.g., contracts, policies, awareness) to protect value derived from a wider set of intangibles;
Manage - Design, implement and manage systems, processes and strategies that support the systematic and strategic management of intangible assets and value;
Commercialize - Manage, monetise and extract value from intangible assets (e.g., via sales/M&A, licensing, capital raising and new business ventures).
