Deloitte Anjin Launches First 'IP Lifecycle Advisory Service' Among Accounting Firms

Establishing an "Open Collaboration System"
with Bae, Kim & Lee LLC, Anyfive, and Others

Deloitte Anjin Accounting Corporation announced on July 3 that it will launch the 'IP Lifecycle Advisory Service,' the first of its kind among domestic accounting firms, which provides integrated support for the entire process of intellectual property (IP) creation, rights acquisition, monetization, and reinvestment.

Deloitte Anjin stated, "With the intensification of technological hegemony competition and IP disputes in recent years, corporate IP has emerged as a core asset for attracting investment, global expansion, and new business development." The company explained, "In response, we offer integrated IP advisory services that establish a virtuous cycle by systematically securing rights for high-quality IP generated through R&D, strategically monetizing it, and then linking the proceeds to reinvestment in subsequent R&D."

Unlike traditional IP advisory services, which provide fragmented support focused on individual issues such as applications, trials and litigation, IP transactions, IP analysis, and IP investment, Deloitte Anjin systematically supports the entire IP lifecycle through an integrated framework encompassing four key areas: high-quality IP creation, IP management system establishment, IP risk and opportunity analysis, and IP utilization and monetization.

This service targets companies seeking IP monetization, those needing to establish efficient IP systems, companies pursuing technology adoption or transfer, and companies developing new businesses. In particular, it provides a turnkey solution covering the entire process from strategy formulation to execution, operation, and review, enabling companies to build a practical internal IP response system even without dedicated IP personnel or organizations. It also offers flexibility to adjust the advisory scope and level of utilization in response to a company's growth stage or changes in the management environment.

Deloitte Anjin's IP Advisory Team is staffed with professionals who possess practical experience across all areas of IP, including applications and dispute response, IP risk analysis, strategy development, transactions, and technology transfer. In addition, through an open collaboration system with domestic and international partners specialized in each lifecycle stage?such as Alchemic Investment Venture Capital, PENTAS Patent & Law Firm, Bae, Kim & Lee LLC, Wort Intelligence, Anyfive, and UK-based ClearViewIP Advisory Limited?the company assembles expert teams optimized for client needs to provide more advanced solutions.

Furthermore, by combining Deloitte's internal expertise in accounting, tax, management, M&A, and forensics (e-discovery) with Deloitte's global IP network, the company offers a differentiated strength: the ability to organically link IP strategy with a company's overall business strategy.

Yoo Hanil, Senior Executive Director of Deloitte Anjin's Management Consulting Division and head of the IP Advisory Team, stated, "In an environment of rapid technological change and intensifying competition, companies must treat IP not merely as a legal asset but as a strategic growth driver." He added, "Deloitte Anjin will continue to provide optimized IP advisory services linked to our clients' business strategies."

Deloitte Anjin plans to use the launch of the 'IP Lifecycle Advisory Service' as an opportunity to further strengthen its more strategic and integrated management consulting framework.
