“IP Finance 2015” will examine IP assets, transactions and challenges

IP Finance 2015, “Innovative Ways to Manage IP Assets for Maximum Return,” will bring together in New York on May 14 leaders in patent licensing and transactions, including those who fund them. 

Following a successful IP Finance kick-off in May 2014, Premier Cercle™ is teaming up with Institutional Investor Magazine and Managing Intellectual Property for a sequel that will explore the best financial practices from patent holders, investors, bankers, financiers, private equity firms, regulators, plaintiffs and defendants.
