And all too often, they combat the problem by simply copying the new technology. Whether they roll out a similar product or service, or they throw money behind developing their own version, these companies will spend the majority of their existence simply chasing others.

And, if you want examples of how permanent—or semi-permanent, at the very least—that loss of market share can be, again, there is no better example than Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler.

Most interesting was the growing willingness of participants to discuss the past few years' "**IP bubble**" and the recent focus on **patents' dollar value calculations** and **patent valuation**. In a range of discussions from university technology transfer directors to patent attorneys and technology company executives, we appear to be returning to a focus on fundamental components of patent value: - Understanding the **importance of the technology** - Focusing upon the **quality **of the legal protection -  And, figuring out the proper or ****best commercialization strategies**** ******** [Read More](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/IPVisions/bid/21984/Patent-Quality-and-Patent-Context-vs-Patent-Value) Categories: [Innovation](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/blog/topic/innovation), [Patent Strategy](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/blog/topic/patent-strategy), [Patent Analysis](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/blog/topic/patent-analysis), [Venture Capital](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/blog/topic/venture-capital), [Patent Context](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/blog/topic/patent-context) [Comments (0) | Add a Comment](https://info.ipvisioninc.com/IPVisions/bid/21984/Patent-Quality-and-Patent-Context-vs-Patent-Value#comments-listing) -
