Partnership Model

360ip uses a proven model to efficiently identify, commercialize and monetize technologies affiliated with our Partners. We use a rigorous market-driven process that begins with integrating our Partners’ IP into our proprietary IP management database. This database is accessible across the entire 360ip network and is the unified platform for identifying multinational bundling, investment, acquisition and licensing opportunities.

Once the IP is entered into our proprietary database, we evaluate, analyze and identify the full spectrum of licensing and investment opportunities. We assess the optimal mix of resources needed to achieve the best commercial return. During this phase of the relationship, we collaborate with the Partners to create an action plan and a "strategic road map".

Our process makes a clear distinction between licensing and investment opportunities. Each opportunity receives a tailored set of resources that matches its requirements for success. Technologies that are close to being market ready, fill an obvious market need and are of interest to existing industry contacts follow a licensing track. Technologies that have the potential to achieve a sustainable revenue stream with the ability to have a strong foothold in a specific market are positioned for an investment track.

For licensing opportunities, we develop the necessary materials, licensing targets and optimal agreements to create a successful licensing relationship. The 360ip team has over 50 years of experience in negotiating and executing licensing transactions on a global scale.

With respect to investment opportunities, we work to create new companies based on promising technologies within our IP portfolio. Investments are also made in existing companies that demonstrate the ability to generate significant returns via IP from our network.

Maximizing synergy across our partners and shareholders, 360ip focuses on IP in the following five sectors:
  • Energy and the environment
  • Health and life science
  • Information technology
  • Material science
  • Nanotechnology
