Maintaining Your Edge in the Oil and Gas Industry
With R&D expenditure in the Oil and Gas Industry surpassing $12bn per annum* the role of intellectual property management has become a significant source of risk and potential reward.

Apply the lessons learnt to your own IP strategies. Intellectual Property Monetisation: Case studies following the transformation of R&D and IP from a cost centre into a significant income stream.
