Case Study: Integrated Device Technologies achieves flexible, global IP portfolio visibility and revenue alignment with IPfolio

IDT’s IP Portfolio is Ready for Anything

Integrated Device Technology (IDT), a global semiconductor company with more than 1,000 patents and $728.2M revenue (fiscal 2017), faced poor portfolio visibility and an inflexible legacy patent system that made it difficult to map patents to products, markets and competitors. To gain a cloud-based, configurable IP management solution, Director of IP and Licensing Bruce Elder selected IPfolio, a Salesforce-based IP management platform.

IPfolio enabled IDT to accurately map patent coverage against products and revenue streams, revealing protection gaps and misaligned assets so the company could refocus its IP strategy. By using IPfolio’s configurability, integrations and PAIR Sync, IDT dramatically improved portfolio management within a year, boosted patent data integrity, reduced the time and cost of system changes, and left leadership wishing they had moved to IPfolio sooner.
