Inventions are Valuable
Inventions are both strategic and financial assets. I" today's high-tech world-where companies are entering new
markets and building products that contain upwards of thousands of patented inventlons-there is an inevitable
Invention Gap'tM. This gap. the difference between the invention rights companies control and the intellectual property
(lP) assets they use, poses a risk and potentially substantial financial liability,

Bridging the Invention Gap'"
As technologies converge, Invention Gap exposure only continues to grow for innovative companies. While in-house IP
can fill a significant portion of the gap, companies must look to alternative sources to address the remaining risk. IV is an
efficient source of tnventions and is uniquely positioned to help our customers reduce their Invention Gap exposure
through licensing our portfolio:
