Intellectual Property Consulting with SBP-IPPlan
Intellectual property (IP) is more than a legal safeguard — it is a strategic driver of growth and competitive advantage. The Strategic Business Planning Company (SBP) helps inventors, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and business leaders unlock the value of their intellectual property through forward-looking consulting and planning. We help with the business side of intellectual property protection, not the Legal Side; we leave that to the Patent Attorneys.
Our IP consulting blends traditional strategy with the tools of Generative AI (GenAI) and Regenerative Dynamic AI (rdAI) to ensure your IP strategy is not only protected, but adaptive and future-ready.
The IPPlan™ Practice
SBP delivers IP consulting through its specialized practice, IPPlan™. IPPlan focuses on the business side of intellectual property — helping clients maximize ROI from patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and portfolios.
With our proven IP COMPASS® framework and our emphasis on perpetual innovation, IPPlan transforms IP from a static filing into a dynamic asset base that evolves with markets and technology.

* We are not patent attorneys and do not offer legal advice. Our work focuses on the business side of intellectual property — including strategic advantage, commercialization planning, branding, and brand extension. We regularly collaborate with patent attorneys, who value our involvement because they are often limited in how deeply they can explore business models, product development, and competitive positioning. By working together, we help ensure your IP strategy is both legally sound and business-smart.
