Patents have been and continue to be an important asset for innovators. Unfortunately, however, a patent is not an asset that typically possesses flexibility and adaptability.

Tomsa has drafted hundreds of patents in his career. He has extensive experience with software patent applications. Tomsa works with several multi-national corporations on the management of large patent portfolios. Understanding the competitive advantage that can be obtained through the application of modern computing technology to portfolio management, Tomsa has developed expertise with software providing analytical portfolio analysis.
