IP Due Diligence

For M&A, VC/PE rounds and IPOs; portfolio audits and risk reporting.

Overview

Technical diligence on an IP portfolio is a reading exercise, not a checklist. We look at whether the rights actually cover the product, whether ownership chains hold, whether open-source obligations were met, and whether anything material was disclosed too early — then report in terms a deal team can use.

What we do

  • Portfolio audits and coverage-vs-product mapping
  • Chain-of-title and employee/contractor assignment review
  • Open-source and third-party licence exposure review
  • Freedom-to-operate risk summary for a transaction
  • Red-flag reporting with remediation plans
  • Vendor-side diligence preparation
