Winbond Transforms IP Management with IPfolio from Clarivate

On October 7, 2025, Clarivate Plc, a prominent global provider of transformative intelligence, made a significant announcement regarding Winbond Electronics Corporation's adoption of its advanced platform, IPfolio. This cloud-based intellectual property (IP) management solution has been pivotal in modernizing Winbond's approach to managing IP assets, leading to notable improvements in operational efficiency and data accuracy.

Major Improvements in IP Management

With the integration of IPfolio, Winbond has reported transformative changes in its IP management processes. One of the most impressive outcomes is a remarkable 90% improvement in data accuracy. This enhancement is primarily due to the seamless integration with Clarivate's IP data, which has effectively eliminated the need for time-consuming and error-prone manual data entry.

Moreover, the frequency of real-time updates to patent data has significantly increased, enhancing Winbond's ability to maintain accurate and current information regarding its intellectual property. Coupled with these improvements, the internal operational efficiency of the company has increased by 25%, resulting in streamlined processes that save time and resources.

Resource Optimization

The introduction of IPfolio has also led to a liberation of management resources, estimated to save Winbond approximately 15%. This was achieved through effective automation features that facilitate data verification, enhanced collaboration with external partners, streamlined email document archiving, and real-time reporting. Together, these functionalities act as a virtual administrator for Winbond's IP assets, thus alleviating the workload on personnel responsible for IP management.

Statement from Clarivate Management

Maroun S. Mourad, the President of Intellectual Property at Clarivate, expressed enthusiasm about the positive impact of IPfolio on Winbond's operations. He noted, “We are very pleased to provide our IPfolio solution to Winbond and support its seamless implementation. In 2025, Winbond was named a Top 100 Global Innovator by Clarivate for the third consecutive year, reflecting their steadfast commitment to innovation—a core value of their company.”

Glen Nath, Senior Vice President of Intellectual Property at Clarivate, highlighted that using IPfolio allows Winbond to manage its IP assets more effectively and with greater control, thereby gaining a considerable competitive advantage in the industry.
