Lombard Technology Services offers software IP financing

Finding finance for a fast-expanding technology firm is not easy. Traditional fixed assets may no longer do the funding job. The UK knowledge economy increasingly hums along on intellectual property (IP), which is often software-based. Frustratingly, IP software is rarely liquid, often tricky to measure and still poorly served by UK lenders, tending not to treat it as its own, very distinct asset class. So a new way of releasing cash from IP has to be worth a look.
