Abstract

Aim/purpose – Intellectual property right management plays an increasingly important role in firms’ business strategies. While empirical findings prove that strategic intellectual property management is positively correlated with multiple dimensions of firm performance, those competences are still rare. The research on the strategies of patent management is dispersed. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to present an analysis of the main patent strategies.
