When you enter the model number of a semiconductor manufacturer, the corresponding model numbers of previously analyzed finished products will automatically appear. For example, if you enter a DRAM model number, you will see the model numbers of iPhones and Samsung phones. Additionally, if you enter a model number for Samsung's Galaxy, you will be able to access cost information for all the semiconductors used within that Galaxy model. This database service allows you to understand what products competitors are offering at what costs, and it helps semiconductor manufacturers and trading companies know at what price level their customers are purchasing products during cost negotiations. The annual contract cost is approximately 3 million yen, but it provides valuable information for any member of the company. The ROI (Return On Investment) for this database service can sometimes yield returns in the hundreds of millions.

In many technology companies, a large portion of corporate value consists of intangible assets. For example, patents serve as an important source of revenue for many companies and are a key indicator of corporate valuation, while IP analysis forms the basis for competitive analysis and strategic planning. The aggressive development cycles, high operational burdens, and the trend of frequent litigation in today's business environment mean that intellectual property (IP) professionals often do not have the time they wish to dedicate to patent portfolios. When such issues arise, TechInsights can assist you. 【IP Life Cycle】 ○ Revenue ○ Defense ○ Formation ○ Strategy ○ Analysis For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
