The document discusses recent trends in intellectual property (IP) asset valuation seen over the past year:
1) Foreign assets, particularly from Germany, Korea, China, and Japan, are playing an increasingly significant role in IP portfolios and driving more value as these foreign markets grow in economic activity and enforcement.
2) "Carrot licensing", which focuses on technology transfer rather than enforcement, is making a return as patents are less valuable as "naked assets" and trade secrets gain prominence.
3) Biotechnology sees valuable IP assets, especially patents, playing a key role in M&A deals and collaborations as innovation increases in areas like molecular diagnostics.
4) New digital asset categories like databases, cryptoc
In our continuing series of annual publications on the activity in the brokered patent market, we see the only constant to be change. Although asking prices have stabilized, sales are down, bringing the value of the brokered market down to $165 million from $233 million last year. However, the launch of both IAM Market and the Industry Patent Purchase Program (IP3) has introduced new buying opportunities. At the same time, the impact of negative patent decisions is becoming apparent as non-practicing entities (NPEs) pull back from the market. For the first time, purchases by corporations have exceeded NPE purchases. Even the biggest NPEs have been affected, with RPX succeeding Intellectual Ventures (IV) as the new buying leader. Further, the data shows that the US Supreme Court’s decision in Alice has crushed much of the nascent financial technology (fintech) patent market and affected software package sales rates. Finally, we received better litigation data this year and it appears that the litigation risk from sold patents is much higher than previously reported – you may want to reconsider your risk models and membership of defensive aggregators.

Just how much device makers are on the hook for in patent licensing payouts is one of the most debated questions in the IP community. While a complete answer may remain elusive, an analytical approach can help manufacturers assess their risk.
After 10 years analysing the patent market, we have some very direct advice this year. If you are in-house counsel, to borrow a line from Samuel L Jackson: “Hold onto your butts.” These next few years are going to be tough. If you have not already signed up with a defensive aggregator such as Unified Patents, RPX, the Open Invention Network, the License on Transfer (LOT) Network or Allied Security Trust (AST), we recommend dusting off your defensive strategy and re-evaluating it.

Dr. Kretov Kirill - Basic classification of corporate assets. Introduction to...drkretov
Dr.Kretov Kirill (Master of Arts in Human Resource Management, and Doctor of Business Administration) explains various types of intangible assets (non-physical resources) recognized (and not) by current accounting practices. This paper is an extract from the Doctorate Thesis written by Dr.Kretov Kirill in December 2009, Geneva / Montreaux, Switzerland. The author invites everyone to participate in his ongoing survey on the site http://www.kretov.ch
Blockchain is transforming how we do business. A popular cryptocurrency called Bitcoin helped prove the blockchain concept. In fact, many people equate cryptocurrency and Bitcoin. However, cryptocurrency is broader and covers any digital “coin” or token transferrable from one party to another without a central ledger (like a bank) recording the transfer. Companies have recently seized upon cryptocurrencies to raise money with “initial coin offerings” or ICOs outside the traditional, highly regulated IPO framework. With the rise of ICOs, the cryptocurrency market is booming. Today, thousands of blockchain-based cryptocurrencies vie for investors.

Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.

Carrots and Coins: Recent Trends in the
Valuation of IP Assets
Efrat Kasznik
Efrat Kasznik is president of Foresight Valuation
Group, a Silicon-valley based consulting firm
specializing in IP valuation and strategy advisory.
Ms. Kasznik is a Lecturer on IP Management at
the Stanford Graduate School of Business. She
serves as Chair of the Licensing Executives Society
(LES) USA-Canada’s High-Tech Sector and has
been listed on the IAM Strategy 300—The World’s
Leading IP Strategists list every year since 2013.
A lot has been written on the impact of the new
leadership at the USPTO on the value of patents.
Since his appointment in early 2018, Director Andrei
Iancu has managed to introduce new initiatives that
increase transparency and uniformity in how the
USPTO and the courts interpret patent claims and
validity challenges, reforms that are largely consid-
ered to have a positive impact on the value of patents.
Some market followers who keep track of the vener-
able “pendulum”, which signals the patent climate
de-jour, were quick to note that the pendulum started
swinging ever so slightly back in favor of patent hold-
ers (as indicated by some renewed interest in the pat-
ent marketplace).
From an IP valuation perspective, one should take
a broader view at the factors impacting the value of IP
assets: patents, as well as other assets. While patents
represent legal rights that are profoundly impacted
by case law and the USPTO examination policy,
focusing on legislative and judicial developments in
the US alone constitutes a very narrow lens by which
to evaluate IP portfolios and the value they bring to
the companies that hold them. Our experience
over the past year indicates that patents are only one
component of the modern company’s IP portfolio.
There are other types of intangible assets, including
new categories of assets we haven’t seen before, that
are emerging in the new digital economy, posing
new valuation challenges but adding more sources of
value for companies. Additionally, new technological
advances are creating fertile ground for technology
transfer and open innovation, processes that depend
on IP rights and which give IP assets great value.
Below are some of the main trends in that we have
seen over the past year, based on the IP portfolios and
transactions that came through the door in our IP
valuation practice:
Foreign Assets Increasingly
Significant
Over the last year, we have seen a clear increase in
the weight of foreign assets in the IP portfolios pre-
sented to us; it used to be the case that the vast major-
ity of assets were US assets, with a few counterparts
that served more as a placeholder and less as a driver
of economic value. Over the last couple of years, we
have seen more and more patent portfolios used to
support funding, strategic collaborations, interna-
tional expansion or the sale of a company, where the
major corpus of assets were foreign assets. More spe-
cifically, we have seen German, Korean, Chinese, and
Japanese assets anchoring an entire portfolio with
very little and sometime no US counterparts at all.
This is a telling sign of the increasing state of enforce-
ment in foreign markets, as well as the increasing
economic activity in foreign markets, which are usu-
ally the two reasons driving patenting decisions. I will
stop short of also saying that this is a sign of the weak-
ness of the US patent market, because I don’t believe
that to be the case. Patenting decisions are made
years in advance of the patent actually showing up. I
also don’t believe that to be a ‘zero sum game’, i.e., if
foreign IP assets drive more value, it doesn’t mean the
US assets are worth less, but rather the entire pie is
probably worth more.
Return of “Carrot Licensing”
Another trend that we are seeing emerge is the
return of “carrot licensing”, which is a term used
to reference licensing activity that is driven by tech-
nology transfer, as opposed to licensing driven by
enforcement (also known as “stick” licensing). This
form of licensing is more closely associated with
emerging technologies, where the licensor is inter-
ested in creating markets for new products using an
idea protected either by trade secrets or by patents.
