Dallas is a mecca for technology and knowledge-based businesses, and their intellectual property could be worth more than any physical assets. That’s why teaming with IP experts is mandatory to eliminate risk and ensure that valuations are handled efficiently and accurately.
What’s the value of your company’s IP? It could be sizeable; however, determining an accurate valuation of intellectual property can be complicated, with missed opportunities resulting from poor choices.
As with any critical business decision, intellectual property valuation is best determined by professionals. The question then becomes: What criteria should businesses use when choosing an IP partner to achieve optimal valuations? Dominion Harbor Group (www.DominionHarbor.com) is a pioneering global leader in patent transactions, representing the IP of clients from Fortune 500 to growing businesses.
Based in Dallas, Dominion Harbor licenses patented technologies to companies in all product and service industries, providing them with the ability to incorporate many of the world’s most sophisticated technologies into their own businesses. Immersed in all aspects of IP protection and monetization, Dominion Harbor Group licenses its immense patent portfolio of more than 20,000 patent assets across the globe, and through its unique and innovative proprietary IPedia® AI analytic platform, empowers clients with comprehensive IP market intelligence that is instantly actionable in optimizing deal-making strategies. Through IPedia®, Dominion is unrivaled in its capacity to analyze patent portfolios, whether they contain 50,000 patents or a single patent, not only for intrinsic quality but for real-world commercial value.
Dominion Harbor Group generates hundreds of millions of dollars in licensing revenues on behalf of its roster of prestigious clients. In addition, the company has acquired patent portfolios of major corporations, owning lucrative patents outright and licensing them to companies in relevant verticals. Most recently, Dominion Harbor acquired a diverse, high quality patent portfolio from Dolby Laboratories, Inc., encompassing over 2,500 patent assets. This sizable acquisition enhances Dominion Harbor’s patent licensing capabilities across a wide spectrum of high-growth industries including display technology, hybrid and electric vehicles, semiconductors, electronics, batteries, wireless power, wireless networking, and healthcare.
“Patents are a must for innovative companies, offering protection that helps protect market position and creates licensing opportunities that can cut across a wide range of industries. In addition, patents provide an assurance to investors that a company’s products and services are fully protected. In essence, patents provide a public record of the IP owner’s exclusive rights and provide opportunities to partner with other companies to bring products to market.” Says David Pridham, Dominion Harbor’s Founder and CEO.
A long-time patent industry attorney and executive, Pridham amassed an impressive string of court victories serving as lead strategy counsel on high-profile patent matters that have generated hundreds of millions of dollars for his IP-owning clients. Although Pridham was scoring legal wins, he began to envision a different and potentially more lucrative path to patent monetization, one where patent owners and businesses met at the negotiation table rather than in a courtroom. This win-win proposition for both sides forms the foundation of Dominion Harbor Group’s business model. And it’s a model that has proven highly effective, generating close to $1billion dollars in revenues for its diverse roster of clients.
