Jamster Capital’s Quality of IP (QoIP) solution provides M&A deal teams with deep intelligence on the target’s IP portfolio, its alignment with the business, its competitive positioning, and its risk profile. We support both buyers and sellers with focused reports that enhance strategic IP insights, improve due diligence, and drive better transaction success.
IP analysis for sellers - Sharpens IP positioning and deal preparedness to drive greater transaction value.
IP analysis for buyers - Deepens IP perspective and due diligence for greater insights and deal confidence.
IP analysis for owners - Builds portfolio value over the holding period, combining short-term improvements with long-term strategic investment.
For sellers of IP-rich businesses, the QoIP report builds a credible, evidence-based narrative that shows how IP protects and differentiates the business, giving buyers a clear view of its strategic value. Our process front-loads a deep examination of the IP assets, surfacing and resolving issues early to streamline workflows in due diligence. This combination of better positioning and deal preparedness positions our clients to realize better value and avoid surprises.
For buyers of IP-rich businesses, QoIP goes beyond traditional legal due diligence to examine strategic questions about the IP, including revenue protection, competitive differentiation, and risk. QoIP translates the IP portfolio into commercial terms, linking innovation advantages with legal protections. This more complete IP investigation provides a clear view of value and risk, enabling buyers to navigate a transaction with greater conviction.
For owners of IP-rich businesses, our team can help create value throughout the holding period. We identify IP investment opportunities, assist with focused patent prosecution, and develop trade secret best practices to protect what the business has built. Together, these efforts build portfolio value over the holding period, combining short-term improvements with long-term strategic investment.
QoIP is a non-legal, business-focused analysis of a company's IP portfolio: its quality, alignment to the business, competitive positioning, and risk, delivered in an investor-ready report.
Legal diligence confirms IP ownership and status. QoIP goes further, showing what the IP means for the business: how it protects revenue and differentiates the company, and where risk exists.
We work extensively with investment bankers, financial sponsors, and management teams of IP-rich companies. QoIP supports sellers preparing to enter the M&A market, buyers conducting diligence on a target, and owners looking to build IP value during a holding period.
Every QoIP report examines five areas: the IP inventory, asset quality, alignment to products and revenue, competitive benchmarking, and litigation or impairment risk.
QoIP covers the full range of IP assets: patents, trade secrets and know-how, software and data, and brand assets including trademarks and copyrights. Scope is tailored to the categories most relevant to the target.

We do not focus on drug discovery, where FDA approvals serve as the chief value driver.
We look for companies in relevant industries that (i) have 25 or more patents and/or (ii) believe that IP is major source of value or risk.
We have completed over 60 QoIP assignments, supporting primarily sellside M&A and, increasingly, buyside M&A.
Our team is multidisciplinary, composed of former investment bankers, IP lawyers, strategy consultants, engineers, chemists, patent licensing professionals, and investors.
