Case Study: Opportunity Genesis:
Creating Value from the Patent Remainders Bin
|
|
|
A Global
2000 world-leader in test and measurement instrumentation was an
established leader in measurement instrumentation and disposable sensors
used in a wide range of industries. Due to basic patents expiring and
low-cost competition emerging from Asia, the product offering was
becoming commoditized and their R&D spending was growing, just to
hold position.
Building
on our IP Opportunity Scan framework, Product Genesis went back to
the client's patent portfolio and R&D teams to better understand the
real capabilities of the client's technology. The breakthrough came by
reversing the logic of the original measurement patent, which enabled broad
product line and business model innovations.
The resulting product line reversed the market share decline, locked-in a
long-term premium revenue stream, and delivered double digit profit
growth.
