Rapid Automated Patent Analysis to
Impress Your Managers and Clients
Perception Partners provides Patent Analytics training to clients and to fellow industry professionals. Our courses present approaches to increasing the speed at which high-quality patent analyses can be performed and communicated throughout an organization and with partners. A range of text mining, statistical modeling and visualization software tools are demonstrated and utilized to teach efficient and effective automated patent analysis through the use of templates, data cleaning, algorithm development and other tactics. Perception Partners’ Managing Partner, Barry Brager, has delivered training to both client sites and to a number of society meetings including PUIG (the Patent Users Information Group) and SCIP (Society of Competitive Intelligence Professionals).
TESTIMONIALFrom the PIUG Fall 2007 Newsletter
"I really enjoyed this workshop and learned more about the uses of patent analysis and visualization techniques than in any other session. Brager has a unique presentation style that guides attendees along a logical narrative path (he uses lots of anecdotes of his own professional experience) only to waylay them with an unforeseen twist. This style led to many “Eureka” moments for the audience members. Of course, this was the main point of his presentation, to use visualization tools and rhetoric to get the attention of management staff; and in this situation, we were the management staff!
During his presentation, Brager demonstrated ways that patent analysis can be used for competitive assessment, product development, risk & cost management, licensing and acquisitions – all things that managers have a high interest in, but likely have never considered the uses of patent analysis in this way before. Brager continually emphasized that the most important thing is to “get their attention” Instead of explaining why patent analysis is important to them and putting them to sleep with the details, simply show them a chart of their patent portfolio compared to their top competitor’s portfolio. That’s one quick way to “get their attention.”
Presentation style aside, Brager demonstrated some of the near-unlimited uses of Vantage Point/Thomson Data Analyzer. Like Excel, this tool can be used with any types of data, not only patent information."
