System and Method of IP Ownership and IP Registration Via a Blockchain Transactional Platform

摘要

The present invention envisions a comprehensive platform (the “IPWe Platform”) that utilizes blockchain and smart contracts to address and improve upon the significant deficiencies that currently exist in the global IP market (patents, trademarks, copyrights, etc.). The objective of the IPWe Platform is creating transparency in (i) patent ownership, (ii) patent identification and (iii) patent coverage and value. By eliminating the current inefficiencies that exist in the patent market, IPWe seeks to reduce the liquidity discount currently associated with the patent asset class. IPWe will transform the patent market by initially making available a transparent immutable and distributed ownership ledger for patents (the “IPWe Registry”) that will serve as the basis for the IPWe Platform that will increase liquidity and facilitate transaction gains in the patent asset class.
