IP rights have become an increasingly important asset not only for R&D and technology based companies but also for consumer product manufacturers and life sciences companies, for example, as well as many other types of business of varying size.
Patent and trademark portfolios often comprise the core assets in large M&A transactions. They can also be at the centre of disputes and change hands as part of a settlement or court order. In any case, the transfer of such rights needs to be effected in a secure and efficient manner.
The refreshed CMS Expert Guide to transferring IP rights provides a high-level overview of the recordal of assignments, licences and pledges of patents and trademarks across 27 jurisdictions, in addition to chapters on EPO and EUIPO regulations.
