Client Recommendations

“I have worked with Jennifer nearly a decade in few different capacities. I have worked on many different types of projects with Jennifer from patent prosecution, business consulting, IP commercialization education/seminar, and start-up deals. Jennifer has extremely high integrity and therefore the end product is very high in quality. More recently, Jennifer has been a great resource for other IP related projects such being an excellent seminar speaker on the subject of IP commercialization education. . In addition, Jennifer’s business network is vast, and we were able to create a mutually beneficial collaboration with one of the start-up companies that originated from my office.”  January 11, 2012

She is a motivated team player who is willing to share her line of thinking with her clients, which helped me to evaluate each case on which we worked together.  Jennifer is an organized and clear thinker who was always committed to the ultimate project quality. In addition, her enthusiasm and professional can-do attitude made her a delight to work with, and I would certainly look forward to working with her again in the future.”  December 3, 2011

“I have worked with Jennifer on many patents over a number of years.  Jennifer can transform complex concepts into beautifully crafted claims – and I have also seen her pull barely conceptualized ideas out of uncooperative inventors.  Either way, she always demonstrates the utmost integrity in her management of intellectual property.  She is an excellent negotiator when players have opposing ideas; she listens carefully to all sides and weighs the costs and benefits to optimize outcomes for the benefit of both parties.  She has a clear understanding of a patent examiner’s thought process, and can anticipate potential outcomes in patent prosecution.  She also has first hand knowledge of intellectual property litigation, and will carefully craft patents with the long-term goal of protecting the owner’s/inventor’s best interest.”  March 18, 2011

Trina Hoefling – Founder, Thought Leader, Facilitator, GroupONE Solutions, LLC

“I take pleasure in writing this referral for Jennifer McCallum.  I met Jennifer through a fellow CEO who had contracted her for many projects.  Global Village Concerns’ original reason for engagement was Jennifer’s credentials and success in licensing, patents, and trademarks.  She quickly began adding strategic value well beyond the tactical filings associated with licensing and trademarks.  Jennifer’s greatest success to date is the licensing agreement completed between GVC and the College Licensing Corporation, which manages hundreds of University trademarks.  This valuable license was a direct result of her creativity and persistence.  As a result of Jennifer’s continued contributions, we extended an invitation for her to join our Corporate Advisory Board.  I recommend Jennifer to any company that is looking to add immediate impact to their licensing and valuation strategy.”  July 12, 2012

We would recommend her to anyone who wishes to use her services.”  January 16, 2013
