Page 6: Technology scouting in Questel Orbit

Technology and skill scouting in Lithium-Air batteries -Graphene patents for Lithium Air cathode

Scenario:The company Robert Bosch that already owns a portfolioin Lithium Air batteries, wants to improve its portfolio byadding patents using graphene.

To perform such an analysis, it is necessary to define three sets of patents:

• Your own portfolio (Here we choose Robert Bosch– 23 patent families which are related to Lithium Air batteries)

• The set of patents that seem to be promising. (Based on the Technology Scouting – 3 patent families)

• The environment (set used in the first part – 632 patent families)

3. Take decision (Licensing In module)

Legal Evaluation

Robert Bosch

Except for the metric concerning the number of patents with over 5 years left, technology scouting portfolio improves the Robert Bosch’s portfolio in almost all the legal metrics.

Set from technology scouting

The technology scouting set helps Robert Bosch portfolio get better and stronger.

Metric low for the technology scouting portfolio because of its low volume (2 five patent families but 100% of them have over 5 years left)

18

Page 19: Technology scouting in Questel Orbit

Technical Evaluation

Tech Scouting patents are highly cited, thus indicating interest from other parties

The tech scouting portfolio improves the Robert Bosch portfolio even if it was already well positioned in terms of originality

From a technical stand point, the situation can be compared to the legal evaluation graph.

19

Page 20: Technology scouting in Questel Orbit

Geographical evaluationIn terms of geographical metrics, the two portfolios seem to complement one another. The

low values for the Tech scouting portfolio are linked to its very small size (only 3 patent families)

Page 21: Technology scouting in Questel Orbit

Interested parties

- Here is a list of companies citing the most the patents from the Technology Scouting portfolio

- In theory those companies might also be interested in buying or licensing in these patents.
