Turn Patent Renewals
into Your Company’s Strategic Advantage
Managing your organization’s intellectual property is crucial for maintaining your market position and competitive advantage:
Relying on external firms for renewals can lead to less transparency in pricing, while managing everything in-house can strain your budget and personnel.
A single failure to renew an essential patent can permanently damage your competitive advantage.
As your organization and portfolio grow, so does the administrative overhead and concern about accuracy.
Black Hills Renewals is the direct, transparent, and easy-to-use solution your organization needs, providing the perfect balance of control, cost-effectiveness, and reliability to protect your market position.

“Paying annuities was a horrible chore … there have been a number of advantages in moving to Black Hills IP Renewals. For starters, it’s been hugely helpful being able to run a cost model on both individual patents and on patent families that aid in strategic decision-making. We love utilizing custom tags by technology applicability, M&A, licenses and relevance to competition, and third-party obligations.”
– David Joyal, VP Legal, Global Supply, and Patent, Coty Inc.

“The power of this platform is that it provides objective roots to decision-making. You can evaluate your IP by forward citations, by how many cases were filed by that class in that year and then plan subsequent activity. Lastly, you can provide cost predictability. If I need to provide an immediate 20% budget reduction, let’s model that a couple ways on my annuity budget and give it to the business to make decisions and explain what they get for each level of spend. This tool allows you to do that and is tremendously powerful.”
