HOME / IPLEX SERVICES IPLEX SERVICES IP Management & Licensing We handle maintenance fees, renewals and ownership records, and advise on licensing to keep your portfolio aligned with how your business owns and uses its IP. Overview Portfolio maintenance, recordals and licensing SCOPE & APPROACH Scope of work Registration is the starting point for ongoing portfolio management. We help maintain rights, keep ownership records accurate and align licensing arrangements with how the IP is used. 01 Maintenance We check the status of each right, the applicable deadlines and the requirements for maintenance and renewal. 02 Recordals We assess changes to applicant and owner details, prepare the supporting documents and handle the required recordals. 03 Licensing and use We advise on the rights, contractual terms and procedures relevant to licensing and use of the IP. MAINTENANCE & LICENSING Keep rights in force. Manage their use. Annual maintenance fees Patents, utility models and designs require maintenance-fee management after registration. We review registration dates, fee years, deadlines and legal status, identify the rights and countries to maintain, distinguish official fees, available reductions and overseas costs, and confirm payment results. Trademark renewals We check trademark expiry dates and renewal windows, review the goods, services and owner details, and identify any use evidence or maintenance filings required in the relevant country. Renewal filings, fees and results are managed together to avoid gaps in protection. Licensing agreements and recordals Patent and design licenses differ from trademark licenses in their subject matter and permitted scope. We clarify exclusivity, territory, term, products, sublicensing, royalties, maintenance costs and termination arrangements, and review registration requirements and legal effects so that contracts and records align.
