Allied Security Trust (AST) Launches 2025 IP3 Program with New Group Licensing Model, Empowering Patent Owners Across New Jersey and Beyond
Innovation just received a major boost in the Garden State and across the global tech landscape. Allied Security Trust (AST), a leading IP risk mitigation firm with deep roots in collaborative tech innovation, has officially launched its 10th annual Industry Patent Purchase Program (IP3) for 2025. The initiative aims to simplify, accelerate, and strengthen the patent transaction process for independent patent holders, inventors, and tech companies alike.

What is the IP3 Program — and Why Does it Matter?
For those unfamiliar, the IP3 (Industry Patent Purchase Program) is an annual, time-limited opportunity for patent holders to submit their portfolios for purchase consideration by some of the world’s leading technology companies. AST acts as the trusted intermediary, reviewing, evaluating, and transacting selected patents on behalf of its members.
What sets IP3 apart is its fast-track process, often completing transactions in a fraction of the time it would take through traditional negotiation. For innovators and IP owners in New Jersey — including independent inventors, startups, universities, and research institutions — this initiative opens a direct line to influential buyers in industries like telecommunications, software, electronics, automotive tech, and AI.

2025 Enhancements: Group Licensing for More Impact
In a significant evolution of the IP3 model, AST has introduced a group licensing option. This addition allows patent sellers to offer licenses to multiple buyers, maximizing the value of their intellectual property without necessarily selling the patents outright.
This flexibility is a game-changer. It not only gives patent holders a broader path to monetization but also allows member companies to share access to valuable tech assets. It reflects AST’s mission to create a transparent, balanced marketplace for IP rights that empowers innovators and reduces costly litigation.
