Changing The IP Supplier Paradigm


Just a few years ago, the [getkc id="43" comment="Intellectual Property"] (IP) business consisted of small blocks being sold by small companies and an almost over the wall delivery mechanism. The industry quickly realized the problems with this supply chain and the IP business went through very rapid change. At the same time, the average size of the IP blocks has increased and today, what we th... » read more
