Making Your IP Appealing to Investors

Making intellectual property (IP) appealing to investors requires more than owning patents. Investors want confidence that your IP is strong, enforceable, well-managed, and aligned with your business strategy.

In this practical webinar, IP attorneys John Harmon and John Hovestadt of Wolf Greenfield will outline concrete steps companies can take to strengthen their IP position and present it credibly during investor discussions, diligence, and fundraising.

FORGE is proud to host this session for startups and product innovators, focusing on real-world IP issues that can either build investor confidence or quietly derail fundraising and growth.

What you’ll learn

• How to ensure clear ownership and control of intellectual property
• Strategies for building robust patent portfolios and protecting trade secrets
• Common IP formalities and compliance pitfalls that can undermine valuation or raise red flags during diligence
