Approach
Referral
AQUA Licensing, LLC typically engages with clients as part of a larger strategic initiative, often introduced by one of our trusted investment banking, or law firm partners. Our engagements frequently begin with a referral from these partners, aligning our efforts with broader business objectives.
Discovery
Our process begins by gaining a thorough understanding of the company’s strategic goals whether it’s M&A, fundraising, or another business priority. We also analyze the company’s intellectual property (IP) portfolio, evaluating how the assets are currently leveraged within the business.
Assessment
AQUA Licensing, LLC conducts a detailed analysis of the IP assets, creating comprehensive claim charts and generating valuation estimates. We also identify potential marketing opportunities, providing a clear view of the asset’s value and potential.
Strategy Development
Based on our findings from discovery and assessment, we craft a customized marketing strategy. This plan is thoroughly reviewed and refined in collaboration with the client to ensure alignment with their goals before moving forward.
Process Execution
Once the strategy is approved, our team executes the plan, targeting potential buyers or licensing partners. We drive the process forward while providing regular status updates, ensuring transparency and responsiveness throughout the engagement.
Transaction
AQUA Licensing, LLC then engages with the leading prospects identified during the marketing phase, negotiating a strategic transaction agreement that aligns with the company’s objectives, be it through licensing, sale, or acquisition.
