Innovation Asset Collective
The Innovation Asset Collective (IAC) cuts through the noise and helps Canadian companies harness the value and power of their Intellectual Property (IP) so our innovations can remain Canadian-owned and globally renowned. Leaders in IP education, strategic counsel, IP generation and patent access, IAC members will maximize the value of their intangible assets, while benefiting from the services of the collective and setting the stage for international growth. We will purchase and license patents on behalf of our members, while they maintain control and ownership of their own IP. By realizing the inherent value of IP, we will protect what is ours. We will foster innovation. We will see more Canadian companies succeed globally. This is our commitment to Canadians.
