VALUE

Patent Valuation & Brokerage

Know What It's Worth.
Then Sell It Right.

A patent is worth exactly what someone will pay for it — but only if you know its value before the negotiation begins. Prism IP delivers rigorous patent valuation, and our dedicated brokerage arm connects your patents with the buyers who value them most.

Two Disciplines. One Team.

Valuation Strategy
Meets Market Access

Patent valuation and patent brokerage are distinct disciplines — and we've structured Prism IP accordingly. Our valuation practice operates within Prism IP, delivering the financial rigour and technical analysis that sound IP transactions require. For patent brokerage — the marketplace work of connecting patents with buyers, licensees, and investors — we work with our dedicated arm: patentbrokering.com.

This specialisation isn't a limitation — it's a strength. You get a valuation practice that is independent and rigorous, and a brokerage operation that is focused entirely on matching patents with the right buyers. Together, they cover everything from "what is this worth?" to "here is the best deal available."

Valuation Methodology

Three Approaches.
One Rigorous Answer.

Cost Approach

What would it cost to recreate this patent from scratch? Useful as a floor value and for portfolio accounting purposes — but rarely the whole picture.

Income Approach

What royalty stream can this patent generate over its remaining life? The most commercially relevant methodology for patents with clear licensing potential.

Market Approach

What have comparable patents sold or licensed for? Requires deep market knowledge — and patentbrokering.com's transaction database gives us exactly that.
