Support for your
IP activities.

Receive $15,000 in IP Credits each year to put your IP strategy into action, prorated based on when you join.

Funding that moves your strategy forward.

Investing in IP activities turns your innovations into long-term business value. The credits included with Full Membership help fund that investment, reducing the costs of building an IP ownership position and giving you the freedom to grow.

The $15,000 credit ensures IAC’s full members have a baseline of IP activity over the year. It helps them build capability and ownership as they take meaningful steps with their innovation.
