Impact Stories
IP For Defense
A US based large corporate in the networking domain was hit with litigation from another litigious corporate. Sagacious mined relevant patents from a third-party corporate that were then acquired by the company, to counter-assert the plaintiff. During this process, Sagacious didn’t disclose the identity of the buyer as often sellers and/or their brokers may inflate the prices when dealing with large corporations / ultimate end users depending on buyers’ perceived level of need.
Strategic Acquisition
A European unicorn with a strong product is competing with the likes of the Fortune20 companies in its space. It is hence on an acquisition spree. Sagacious identified a small corporate but with a strong patent portfolio in the domain as a potential acquisition opportunity. The unicorn acquired the whole company.
