Effectively managing and optimizing the value of the patent
portfolio is a major challenge for many firms, especially those in
knowledge intensive industries, such as the pharmaceutical,
biotechnological and chemical industry. However, insights on
effective patent portfolio strategies are rare. Therefore, in this
article we investigate in detail how firms successfully manage and
optimize their patent portfolios to increase their overall
competitiveness. We discover that successful patent portfolio
management is rooted in managing the patents along their life
cycles. Based on the findings of ten case studies, we develop a
holistic patent life cycle management model reflecting five
distinctive phases of patent management: explore, generate, protect,
optimize and decline. We conclude with how our findings can be used
in practice.
