Selected Approach
Offensive and Defensive IP Portfolio Construction Framework
StrategyOrganize your company's technical assets by "contribution to business" and "superiority over competitors" to design a patent network from both offensive (enforcement) and defensive (blocking entry) perspectives.
Ideal for situations like materials manufacturers, where a single core material can be developed for a wide variety of applications, to build a comprehensive patent network without any gaps.
Extract target technologies and invention ideas
Comprehensively identify the company's technical assets that will form the core of the patent network, as well as invention ideas currently in progress.

Evaluate technologies based on importance and imitability.
Map the technologies identified in Step 1 along two axes—contribution to the business and the likelihood of imitation by competitors—to clarify the priorities of the IP strategy.

Analysis of competitors' rights status and weaknesses
For the identified key technologies, clarify the strengths of competitors' patent networks and the gaps (white spaces) where your company can make inroads.

Formulate a draft configuration for the patent application network
Using the core technologies analyzed in Step 3 as a foundation, we will plan specific application variations for "fencing" that prevents competitors from bypassing them.
