• Determine the markets that could benefit from the IP and size those markets using several approaches
  
  
• Study existing product groups and existing and anticipated markets and determine the extent to which the relevant IP contributes to competitive position and then consider future products of the company – and other companies that may license the technology
  
  
• Consider external factors that will influence future value of the portfolio
