1. A system, comprising:
- an intellectual property (IP) marketplace processor,a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor,the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising;
determining, by the processor, an IP portfolio associated with a user;
analyzing, by the processor, the IP portfolio to determine a plurality of factors associated with the IP portfolio;
determining, by the processor, a community recommendation for a first channel based upon community knowledge and at least one of the user, the IP portfolio or the plurality of factors;
determining, by the processor and based on input from the user, a channel rating threshold;
determining, by the processor, that a channel rating for the first channel is greater than the channel rating threshold;
receiving, by the processor and from the user, an acceptance of the first channel;
determining, by the processer and based on the community knowledge, a sort order for the first channel in a channel guide;
presenting, by the processor, the first channel to the user; and
suppressing, by the processor, the first channel from a potential buyer of an IP asset in the IP portfolio based on a status of negotiation between the user and the potential the buyer.

19. A computer-based method comprising:
-
determining, by an IP marketplace computer-based system, an IP portfolio associated with a user; analyzing, by the computer-based system, the IP portfolio to determine a plurality of factors associated with the IP portfolio; determining, by the computer-based system, a community recommendation for a first channel based upon community knowledge and at least one of the user, the IP portfolio or the plurality of factors; determining, by the computer-based system and based on input from the user, a channel rating threshold; determining, by the computer-based system, that a channel rating for the first channel is greater than the channel rating threshold; receiving, by the computer-based system and from the user, an acceptance of the first channel; determining, by the computer-based system and based on the community knowledge, a sort order for the first channel in a channel guide; presenting, by the computer-based system, the first channel to the user; and suppressing, by the computer-based system, the first channel from a potential buyer of an IP asset in the IP portfolio based on a status of negotiation between the user and the potential buyer.

20. An article of manufacture including a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by an IP marketplace computer-based system, causes the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
-
determining, by the computer-based system, an IP portfolio associated with a user; analyzing, by the computer-based system, the IP portfolio to determine a plurality of factors associated with the IP portfolio; determining, by the computer-based system, a community recommendation for a first channel based upon community knowledge and at least one of the user, the IP portfolio or the plurality of factors; determining, by the computer-based system and based on input from the user, a channel rating threshold; determining, by the computer-based system, that a channel rating for the first channel is greater than the channel rating threshold; receiving, by the computer-based system and from the user, an acceptance of the first channel; determining, by the computer-based system and based on the community knowledge, a sort order for the first channel in a channel guide; presenting, by the computer-based system, the first channel to the user; and suppressing, by the computer-based system, the fist channel from a potential buyer of an IP asset in the IP portfolio based on a status of negotiation between the user and the potential buyer.
