Product Genesis helps clients identify new and emerging market opportunities for an existing technology and IP portfolio. This is accomplished through our proven Opportunity Genesis framework. Opportunity Genesis is applicable to challenges presented by both pre-commercial technologies and underutilized established technologies. The adaptable approach is successful at both tightly bounded and unbounded opportunity explorations. The result is value creation from underutilized technology assets.

The unique two-phase approach uncovers and qualifies both broad market opportunities (Opportunity Scan) and specific product/services opportunities (Opportunity Identification) for a technology and IP portfolio.

Topics vary, but may include analysis of:
