A defensible software business is more than code. Ownership, confidential know-how, product identity, technical inventions, licensing and commercial relationships can all contribute to the IP position. LIT·IP helps companies structure those layers as the product scales.
GLOBAL IP STRATEGY
Code is one layer. Enterprise value is the whole structure.
Software companies can lose leverage when ownership, contractor assignments, confidential know-how, brands or licensing terms are treated as afterthoughts.
Build protection around the business, not only the repository.
The right portfolio depends on what creates differentiation and how the software is built, sold and expanded.
