Strategies for capturing IP at dawn: Developing and implementing an intellectual property strategy

摘要

Recent predictions from analysis firm Research and Markets estimate that the global market for photonics crystal components will be worth $20.4 billion by 2017, and the global silicon photonics market worth $1.96 billion by 2025. With this surge in innovation, the photonics market will become even more crowded; so, it is imperative to get an advantage over competitors and generate a return on research and investment. A robust intellectual property (IP) strategy is a tool that can help achieve this.
