Obsolete Patents<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nMonetisable patents are the ones which might not be\ncore to the organisation\u2019s business, thus might not be infringed by the direct\ncompetitors. These patents, however, could still be relevant to start-ups or\ncompanies in a different domain. Hence, they should be sold or out licensed to\nthe organisations\/ start-ups working in the relevant areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second\nsub-category is Lean patents. These are the patents which are not infringed and\nneither do they have any open family members and hence may also not be taken\nfurther for filing Continuation applications to improve the claims. These could\nalso be patents that are very narrow and render a possibility of designing\naround them. These could be packaged with other patents of the relevant domain\nto derive monetary value. The third sub-category, obsolete patents, comprises\nof those patents which work on a pivoted technology which is not currently\nbeing used in the market. Thus, such patents cannot add any kind of benefit as\nthe technology they work on is out-dated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the above it is\nrather straightforward to see that maintaining such lean and obsolete patents\ncan be uselessly extortionate for the organisation. The F3 Analysis solution\nproposes that such patents should be pruned in a timely manner, in order to\nsave the maintenance fee spent on them.<\/p>\n\n\n
