Ready to Make an Impact?

At Intellectual Ventures we believe ideas are valuable, and so are the people who generate them. Our people impact invention through groundbreaking research and partnerships, from investigating applications for our most ambitious inventions, to spinning out new companies that create and commercialize transformative technologies. That’s the essence of Impact Invention—our belief that we can change the world through the power of invention—and we’re looking for people who share our passion for world-changing ideas.

Invention Investment Fund
Invention Investment Fund (IIF) manages one of the world's largest patent portfolios. Through licensing, strategic partnerships, and patent sales, we provide companies access to thousands of inventions sourced from independent inventors, universities, startups, small-and-medium sized businesses, and Fortune 500 firms – all while generating a return for our investors.

Invention Science Fund
The Invention Science Fund (ISF) is built around our simple belief that there is a better way to invent and commercialize the next generation of technology. Taking ideas born out of our Invention Sessions – interdisciplinary brainstorms with some of the world’s top inventors – and bringing in talent entrepreneurs to turn those ideas into high-growth, disruptive companies, our impact is seen in the numerous spinout companies we have launched.

Deep Science Fund
The Deep Science Fund investigates applications for our most ambitious inventions and ideas in areas such as advanced chemistry, the physical sciences, and biomedical devices. Our team partners with prominent technical experts to commercialize ideas from the world’s most prolific inventors.

Corporate Communications
The Corporate Communications team develops the tools we need to tell our story effectively. They support internal and external communications for the entire company.

Finance
The Finance organization manages all of IV’s financial activities. They are an important strategic partner to all parts of the business and have the challenging task of managing a detail-oriented discipline inside an innovative, rapidly changing company.

Human Resources
Human Resources is responsible for recruiting the most talented people, helping them develop new skills and supporting them throughout their careers.

Legal
The Legal team provides legal support to diverse business groups across all of IV.

Systems and Technology Group
The Systems and Technology Group (STG) operates as IV's internal technology partner, enabling the business to quickly and sustainably anticipate, analyze, and respond to market opportunities and challenges.

IV Lab
From idea generation and prototyping to the development of commercial devices, IV Lab is also where our new spinout companies emerge and where our most impactful inventions to date have been born. Our scientists, physicists, and engineers who call IV Lab home collaborate with peers across a variety of disciplines to take invention out of the lab and into the marketplace.
