A patent filing is an investment. A well-structured licensing programme converts that investment into a recurring revenue stream. Whether you are licensing your patent to a single partner or building a comprehensive licensing programme, SCIPP Patents provides the legal expertise to maximise the commercial value of your IP.
We draft and negotiate comprehensive patent licence agreements — exclusive, non-exclusive, and sole licences — covering the full range of commercial terms: territory, field of use, sublicensing rights, royalty structures, milestone payments, minimum sales commitments, and termination provisions. Our agreements are designed to protect the licensor’s rights while being commercially attractive to licensees.
Technology transfer involves not just licensing the patent, but transferring the know-how, trade secrets, and technical expertise needed to commercialise the invention. We structure comprehensive technology transfer agreements for both outbound (Indian companies licensing to foreign partners) and inbound (foreign companies transferring technology to Indian partners) transactions.
Understanding the value of your patent is essential before entering licensing negotiations. We prepare patent valuation reports using established methodologies — including cost, market, and income approaches — to give you a credible basis for licensing negotiations, sale transactions, and balance sheet reporting.
In technology-intensive sectors, companies often hold patents that block each other. Cross-licensing arrangements allow parties to access each other’s IP without payment, or on preferential terms. We structure and negotiate cross-licensing deals that balance the patent strength of each party.
Under the Patents Act, 1970, a person can apply for a compulsory licence if the reasonable requirements of the public are not satisfied, or the patented invention is not available at a reasonably affordable price. We represent both parties in compulsory licensing applications — applicants seeking licences and patentees defending against such applications.
