Ryan Sullivan was recognized for the second straight year as a top U.S. economic expert in the 2015 edition of Intellectual Asset Management’s IAM Patent 1000: The World’s Leading Patent Practitioners 2015.
The IAM Patent 1000 identifies the leading technical and economic experts from around the world. According to Nicholas Richardson, research editor on the IAM Patent 1000, “Patents have become essential business commodities, and knowing how to obtain, enforce and monetise them has become mission critical for companies in all industry sectors.” Further, “The IAM Patent 1000 shines a spotlight on the firms and individuals that are deemed outstanding in this pivotal area of practice…Only those individuals identified by market sources for their exceptional skill sets and profound insights into patent matters feature in the IAM Patent 1000.”
According to IAM, “Ryan Sullivan is the man behind Intensity, previously known as Quant Economics. The new branding reflects his modus operandi: he goes into an uncommon level of detail, dotting every I and crossing every T so that adversaries find it difficult to challenge his work. ‘He can handle large assignments with skill and finesse, and he applies his supreme econometric skills in a way that is straightforward. He has done well to build a smart group around him, too.’”
