Client profile
Senior executives from a public sector organisation approached CambridgeIP for assistance in mapping a broad section of the UK information technology space
Business situation
A key driver was the need to inform our clients’ strategy in this complex and patent intensive space. Our remit was to assist client executives develop a clear understanding of the existing landscape, identify areas of relative strength & weakness and existing R&D collaborations, analyse trends and provide statistical information & benchmarking data for use in strategy & policy planning and stakeholder reports.
CambridgeIP's approach
