HomeAbout

A specialist firm where intellectual property meets commercial value.

Senior, focused and well connected.

01Who we are

We help clients build IP capabilities, shape their response to complex IP situations and bring together the expertise needed to deliver.

Intellectual Consultancy is a specialist advisory firm working with advisory firms, lenders, investors and stakeholders in complex situations.

We are deliberately small and senior. Clients work directly with experienced people, supported by a network of trusted specialists across valuation, restructuring, law, finance, technology and transactions.

02What we believe

Four convictions.

  1. 01

    IP is a commercial asset first

    Its value depends on who wants it, why, and what they can do with it.

  2. 02

    Define the question first

    The best outcomes come from defining the question before commissioning the answer.

  3. 03

    Know who to bring in

    No single firm has every specialism. The skill is knowing who to bring in, and when.

  4. 04

    Judgement over volume

    Discretion and judgement matter more than volume.
