Establishing the value of patents depends on several factors, which often are ambiguous and uncertain. A significant fraction of issued patents, in the USA or internationally, has little or no value for licensing purposes. An even smaller fraction of existing patents would be able to “stand in Court” and not be invalidated on various legal grounds.
