<p>A portfolio creation and management tool creates and manages a portfolio of intellectual property assets of a global entity having sub-entities (104) located in various localities around the world (102). The sub-entities (104) have a legal relationship to the entity, by contract or by law of a an internationally recognized jurisdiction. A network connection (108, 110) connects a sub-entity of the global entity residing in more than one jurisdiction. A portfolio application residing on a central server downloads from the network, stores and maintains data representative of the intellectual property assets of the global entity (116a-c), including data internal to at least one sub-entity. The portfolio application provides segments that combine one or more intellectual property assets into a category that has a market relevance to the global entity and provides objects that represent assets of an external entity. The portfolio application allocates the segments to at least one portfolio and an evaluation tool provides a selectable value that indicates a worth to each asset. An analysis tool of the portfolio application provides analysis of the portfolio by organizing at least one of the segments and objects in a manner that demonstrates a comparison amongst the segments and, respectively, the objects.</p> |
