Join Joe Dury and Jerry Freeman as they discuss practical approaches companies can use to understand, manage, protect and leverage IP portfolios by developing an IP strategy that supports the business strategy.
Many companies view PLM implementations the same old way they’ve viewed enterprise system implementations (like ERP) for years. As a result, they tend to follow the same old waterfall implementation approach. Alternatively, an agile approach leads to significant benefits and more optimal PLM solutions. Here's how.
Too often, new product development is driven by guesswork, assumptions or the loudest customer or senior staff member. As a result, many new products that make it to market don’t deliver the sales, customer value or business benefits they should. Check out this webcast recording to learn how you can leverage leading practices to make sound product investment decisions.

When moving a new product or service through the development cycle, there are generally four outcomes a New Product Development (NPD) team can expect.

Last week I co-hosted a Webcast with Kalypso and Dassault Systems called “IP (Intellectual Property) Management: Setting a Foundation for Innovation”. Whether I am speaking in an event like this or working on-site at a client, I hear a lot of similar questions and concerns on IP issues, and here are a few of the most common.
A company’s intellectual property (IP) portfolio is often one of its most valuable and strategic assets. Even though IP creation and reuse is an integral component of an effective innovation process, IP management and oversight typically is relegated to corporate legal groups.
Today's most innovative companies are reevaluating their existing assets, IP, and product lines to develop completely new streams of revenue with little investment. Mars, Oceaneering, Play-Doh, and Airborne LIDAR are great success stories. What other examples are out there?
Low-cost innovation shouldn’t mean boring or incremental innovation.

In the current economy, building a competency in asset evaluation and creativity could make the difference.
