Venture Capital & Private Equity

International Capital Ventures is a full-service invention focused venture studio. Like more traditional venture capital and private equity firms, we raise money from investors, create IP assets and buy IP assets from others who would have trouble monetizing them effectively on their own. We actively manage those assets to maximize their value and then provide exit strategies to realize that value.Outside the pharmaceutical and biotech industries, few companies consider inventing, or producing patented intellectual property, to be their primary mission. In fact,the concept that inventions and their corresponding IP can be separated from the companies that turn them into actual products, represents a general "unknown". We believe, however, that invention is set to become the next software: a high-value asset that will serve as the foundation for new business models, liquid markets, and investment strategies. We aim to harness the tremendous financial power of the private sector to fund invention.Our network include scientists and engineers, patent analysts and attorneys, finance experts, and licensing sales agents. To raise capital, we have an investor relations team. Our topic generation teams continually study trends in technology development and new discoveries in science to try to identify the best opportunities for investment. Their conclusions guide three distinct groups. The first is our in-house invention effort. The second is our external joint venture program. The third is our acquisitions group, which buys existing patents or stakes in them.
