IP and Technology Valuation

TCI frequently handles technology assessment and valuation projects. One of the most critical and complex issues negotiated between a potential licensee and licensor is the price of the technology to be acquired. This issue becomes increasingly difficult when the technologies under consideration are early-stage and largely unproved. Both parties need to develop a pricing mechanism that will establish a fair rate of return on the value or the intellectual property investment. TCI has assisted companies in pricing and valuing their technology. This experience has focused on the advanced material, medical, and pharmaceutical industries.
