Abstract: A facility for facilitating processes for acquiring intellectual property assets (“assets”) is described. In some embodiments, the facility enables an organization operating the facility to generate a budget for a proposed acquisition of assets. The organization may include multiple entities that are together interested in acquiring the assets. The entities may each provide values for the assets, either by applying rules that automatically attribute values to the assets, by having human analysts manually analyze the assets to estimate their values, or by some combination of these two techniques. The facility generates the budget based on the values determined for the assets. A person or team of people responsible for the proposed acquisition of assets can use the budget in negotiations to acquire the assets. If the assets are acquired, the facility can allocate acquisition and post-acquisition expenses among the entities on whose behalf the assets were acquired.

Abstract: The present subject matter describes a method and a system for managing sustainable intellectual property (SIP) portfolio of an Enterprise, which comprises generating, by a processor, a sustainable intellectual property (IP) in atomicity of the Enterprise based on a set of sustainability differentiators. The sustainability differentiator is obtained, based on at least one of a strength parameter, a spread parameter, a duplicity parameter, and a difference parameter Further, a plurality of decomposed fragments of intellectual property landscapes are obtained by analyzing the sustainable IP in atomicity based on a plurality of intermediate datasets and data structures. The method further comprises creating a sustainable and optimized IP portfolio for the Enterprise by processing at least one of the sustainable IP in atomicity and the plurality of decomposed fragments based on optimization parameters and at least one multiple objective portfolio optimization function.
