Where intelligence drives smarter patent transactions

The IP practitioners defining the patent transactions landscape are gathering in San Diego this October for IAM Live: Patent Transactions.  

Join over 100 leading IP decision-makers, brokers, buyers, and sellers for a focused day of expert-led insight on the issues that matter most: SEP licensing, IP-rich M&A, AI-driven valuation, and the global policy shifts reshaping how deals get done. 

One day with IAM, the leading intelligence platform for the global patent market, gives you the strategic knowledge, insider perspectives, and peer connections to negotiate stronger deals, command better valuations, and stay ahead in patent transactions.

What our delegates say about IAM Live: Patent Transactions

The sessions are topical, interesting, and the speakers share unique, real-world and helpful perspectives that oftentimes affect my day-to-day thinking. I love the networking too, but just from a sheer ROI perspective, I have been very impressed with the IAM events.
