If you're an IP rich business and looking to secure investment then this episode is loaded with value for you. Sandy is an investor with a lot of experience and was also the other side of the deal when she founded and scaled her own IP rich business from a university spin-out - a business that is still going strong today.
Among other things, we cover:
- How to access Mercia, whether through their website applications process or getting live feedback over the phone through the hugely popular 'Meet the Funder' program
- What VCs are looking for in terms of IP
- How important IP is in different sectors
- How important are intangible assets in software businesses?
- How clued up are investors when it comes to IP?
- Should you do some freedom to operate work in preparation for investment?
- The importance of making sure your patents actually cover your products
- The relationship between universities, founders and VCs and how it can go wrong
- How getting your IP in good shape has a big impact on your credibility with VCs
A must listen if you're looking to gain investment.
Sandy can be reached through LinkedIn and you can access Mercia through their website.
