Abstract
One aspect of the present invention includes a computer-implemented method for evaluating intellectual property. One preferred computer-implemented method includes obtaining a plurality of intellectual property (IP) records, preparing an IP data set based on the plurality of IP records, analyzing the IP data set to obtain an at least one IP cluster, and displaying the at least one IP cluster to allow a user to evaluate IP opportunities for the IP data set. IP opportunities include, but are not limited to, licensing, donation, infringement, and competitive intelligence opportunities.
