London, United Kingdom, 16 November 2022 – Clarivate Plc (NYSE: CLVT), a global leader in providing trusted information and insights to accelerate the pace of innovation, today announced a strategic partnership with IPwe Inc., a leader in blockchain technology that provides smart solutions for the management of intangible assets through data-driven recommendations. The vision of this partnership is to enable Clarivate and IPwe customers to accelerate innovation by accessing uniquely curated patent data from Clarivate within IPwe’s artificial intelligence (AI), predictive analytics and blockchain technology platform.
AI and Blockchain are transforming innovation for business leaders from patent offices, companies of all sizes and universities.
