Nucleus allows you to account for and manage the intellectual asset pool, underlying relationships, inventors, contributors, agreements and portfolios. We refer to Nucleus as IAM AccountingTM, because it is essentially an accounting system for intangible assets, agreements and relationships. For technology and innovative companies, Nucleus is at least as important as any accounting system that you may have for financial purposes. Nucleus provides a secure and scalable intellectual asset accounting system, with several significant attributes that make it unique across the entire, competitive, market place.
Do You Know What You Own?
Get Strategic With Your Resources
Know who the right teams are and keep them together, whether you downsize or grow. Acknowledge your inventors and their contributions, and make it part of your corporate culture to recognize, reward and respect their inventiveness.
Control Your Costs While Maximizing Revenue
By tracking your protection expenses and inventor awards programs you can maintain control over costs, while actively managing; complex licensing, funding and collaborative type agreements for fund, cash and revenue enhancement. Future Path Nucleus™ provides managed grids and dynamic views to expose a variety of problems.
Maximize Your Understanding of Relationships
Your relationships with internal R&D groups, joint research partners, funding partners, patent firms, IP firms, licensing consultants, government entities and institutions are very important to your success. Knowing who you do business with and what the experience has been is important. Which patent agents yield the highest probability of a patent issuing if they act on your behalf? Which companies represent your best or worst licensees? What relationships exist between countries, companies, agents, firms and licensees?
