a new approach to the delivery of technology information
“… we need to dramatically increase the rate at which we protect and commercialize new ideas and the intellectual property (IP) that often starts in publicly funded research.” “… research ends up orphaned on the shelves of institutions that are unable to fund its commercialization … these cash strapped organizations are often raided by foreign multinationals …”.

Patent valuation is the holy grail of IP. Everyone wants to do it and many claim they can, but it is actually quite difficult. The quest to valuation is more entailed than a single “click” because it relies on knowledge of technology. Ignoring technology is at the valuator’s peril.

It was indeed sad to hear of Robbie Coltrane’s passing last week. Anyone that knew his work knew of his uncompromising wit, uncanny facial expressions and unmistakable presence. His most famous role was that of Rubeus Hagrid in the Harry Potter movies. In fact, most of the online accolades cited this role.

Apple’s Spring Loaded Event came and went. Along the way it left us with quite a few bits of new hardware. Some even come in purple! One of these hardware goodies was a new AppleTV. Years ago Steve Jobs referred to it as a hobby. It has not really lost that tag. There is now an A14, new software, and a new remote. If the AppleTV is a hobby the remote is a punching bag. Complaints span from…
