Philadelphia-based intellectual property company Big Idea is heading to the annual CES conference in Las Vegas, writes Sarah Huffman for Technical.ly.
The company CEO Nate Hecker and COO Jarid Arnold will showcase the company’s offerings with a booth at the globally recognized consumer technology trade show.
The platform they are promoting makes it possible for anyone to register any type of intellectual property by tokenizing the rights to that idea. This process protects the IP and transforms it into an asset that can be traded or bought, as well as licensed.
Simplifying the IP registration process using a single platform incentivizes people to document their ideas and protects them in the early stages of creating their work, the duo said.
“There’s that phase where an idea is still evolving,” said Arnold. “But it doesn’t mean that it’s not valuable and it doesn’t mean that, you know, you shouldn’t be able to protect it to some degree.”
Big Idea also focuses on trade secrets, as many companies don’t know how to protect or identify them.
“We have a patent pending, dual ledger system that we use that allows us to disclose a trade secret or a vulnerable competitive information publicly, but be able to keep the entity and the contents of it private,” said Hecker.
