Ingk Labs IP Acceleration Model
Getting beyond that “Eureka!” moment takes more than mere imagination. The Ingk Labs IP acceleration model lays the foundation for taking promising IP from concept to company. Our 90-day program is designed to define both a product and a successful business model. The cycle culminates with a fully functioning portfolio venture that is ready to attract follow-on funding, an acquisition partner, or operate as a standalone company.
Ingk Labs startup teams rapidly refine an IP prototype and build a path to profitability based on a well-defined 3-step process.
Phase 1 — The first 30 days are focused on ideation, prototyping, IP protection, and due diligence.
Phase 2 — The next 30 days are focused on funding, building a core team, developing the portfolio venture, and partnering with customer-innovation teams.
Phase 3 — The final 30 days are focused on hiring operational teams, launch, and deployment.
IP Rescue Program
Our objective is to rescue IP from the brink of oblivion and transform it into fully functioning, capitalized portfolio ventures within an ambitious time frame.
Our view of technology is different in that we believe IP can come in non-traditional forms. Ingk Labs saves underleveraged IP from non-practicing entities or ‘patent trolls’, as well as nascent ideas from the intellectual graveyard.
Underdeveloped IP — Existing code base that is not fully developed and/or effectively deployed
Intellectualized IP — An idea yet to be fully designed or built, which is consequently underleveraged
