Summary:

An independent consulting company that specializes in intellectual property (IP) valuation has developed a new method for calculating the discount rate of patent licenses as a function of estimating the minimum time expected for a substitute technology to provide the same functionality. This case study follows Darius Jacobs, a senior consultant working with a Swiss company, UNRS (Universal Nano-Refinery Systems). UNRS is attempting to place a value on a new type of technology that uses magnetic induction heating to create a highly tunable nano-refinery system. The chemical refinery system refines pyrolytic oil (oil that is manufactured using a process called pyrolysis-a high temperature chemical conversion without burning or oxidation) into one of several drop-in ready fuels-those that can be immediately used in a standard engine. The role of the technology minimum substitution interval (TMSI) metric comes up repeatedly as the consultant attempts to bridge a gap between his internal valuation of the patent and the customer's desired valuation.
