why AncillaryIPs

“if I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses”

- Henry Ford.

The vision that drives pure research is the true driver of economic, cultural and community prosperity.  Currently our societies and economies have difficulty in reconciling the speculative and the commercial.

Unique intellectual property is being created every day and we waste it.

There is a way though that artists, scientists and all those engaged in pure research can focus on that research and still generate commercial outcomes.     AncillaryIPs gives us this capacity.

AncillaryIPs occur when, in the course of a practitioner pursuing their vision of a final work, they encounter difficulties that require the development of a technology, device, process or code.  These tools become the basis for IP commercialisation. In this way an appropriate commercial value is placed on pure research, allowing for the long term necessity of pure research to have a significant long and short term economic, cultural and social impact.

AncillaryIPs looks to the tools created in the arts and sciences and applies them to resolve like problems in other aspects of life.   This model relies on pure research and the technical problems that this activity generates.  It is this outstretching drive of pure exploration that means new and unique problems will be encountered and that new and unique solutions will be found to over come them.

The Wave Diagram shows how creative practitioners continually generate IP in the course of their work.  This IP has been created to resolve a problem, so it is just a case of finding a like problem that the IP can resolve; giving a considerable head start in the R&D process.

The Complex Wave Diagram shows the relationship between business and the creative practitioner.  The creative practitioner lays golden eggs for their entire creative life. The commercialisation business benefits from the creative practitioner focusing on their work and having the income to continue doing so.  It is a long term relationship where both parties benefit.
