The LinxUS Company, Inc. is an Innovation Capital consulting and private equity firm that specializes in “Connecting Creatives to Capital™.” We consult with the inventor community and invest in select clients that need assistance in rapidly realizing the successful commercialization of their intellectual property via licensing and/or sale directly to industry, profitably connecting market-ready ideas with larger market opportunities.Large firms puzzling over whether to pay for developed technology or take a risk on bleeding-edge concepts now have a third choice -- a new kind of "innomediary" that identifies and refines innovations, reducing market risk in return for a share in the potential rewards. As an Innovation Capital firm, Tge LinxUS Company, Inc.:1. Seeks out and evaluates ideas and technologies from the inventor community. 2. Develops and refines those ideas to the point where their market potential is validated, and then pitches them to large corporate firms, typically in the form of a licensing and/or sale agreement.3. Key tasks include: developing prototypes, conducting market research, and creating initial branding and packaging – but stopping short of fully developing or commercializing the concept. That is left to the acquiring company.The acquiring company pays less than it would for a market-ready product. But it also gets to observe and assess potential products well past the idea stage, and thus increases its innovation yield. Net, LinxUS reduces a company’s acquisition costs and early-stage risks. In return, LinxUS shares in the proceeds from the innovation.
