AI + IAM: Why Your IP Strategy Needs an Upgrade—Now

Invent Anything™

In this powerful episode of Invent Anything, host John Cronin pulls back the curtain on the transformation happening at the intersection of AI and Intellectual Asset Management (IAM). If you’re a CEO or CTO navigating IP strategy, innovation pipelines, or competitive growth, this is your roadmap to what’s next.

AI is no longer just a buzzword—it’s quietly revolutionizing how companies identify, protect, value, and monetize their IP. From automating prior art searches to predicting portfolio value and spotting infringement in real time, AI-enhanced IAM is enabling smarter, faster, and more strategic innovation management.

But it’s not just about automation. Cronin dives deep into:

• How AI is enhancing core IAM workflows like patent drafting, valuation, and portfolio management

• Where AI is being resisted—and why legal risk, job insecurity, and lack of transparency are holding back adoption

• Real-world use cases across small startups and Fortune 500s alike

• Integration opportunities with R&D, marketing, legal, and M&A through intelligent IP data sharing and risk detection

This episode also looks ahead, forecasting how **emerging AI technologies—like quantum machine learning, symbolic reasoning, and emotion-aware agents—**may further disrupt how companies protect and grow innovation assets.

You’ll get insight into:

• AI-powered licensing and NDA negotiation tools

• Detection of trade secret leaks and rogue inventors

• Custom IAM agents tailored to your specific tech vertical or business model

Whether you’re scaling a new product line or future-proofing your IP position in the age of AI, this session helps you rethink your entire approach to innovation management.

Key takeaway: AI in IAM isn’t just a trend—it’s becoming a necessity. And the companies that adopt it early will lead tomorrow’s innovation economy.
