"Nanotechnologie
Patentverwertung auf dem Gebiet der Nanotechnologie und Thermo-Keramischen Wandbeschichtungen
Mit Nanotechnologie in die Zukunft!
Die Nanotechnologie ist die Zukunftstechnologie des 21. Jahrhunderts. Sie wird revolutionäre Auswirkungen auf unsere Lebensbedingungen haben. Denn: Nanoformierte Oberflächen sind lange Zeit vollkommen wasser- und schmutzabweisend.
Das ist wirklich sensationell.
Nanoformierte Schuhe – Bleiben einfach sauber und trocken, da sie wasserdicht sind. Nanoformierte Krawatten – Schmutz und Flüssigkeiten perlen einfach ab. Nanoformiertes Holz – Kein Wasser dring ein, es ist absolut wetterfest. Nanoformierte Waschbecken – Unempfindlich gegen Kalk und Schmutz jeder Art. Nanoformierte Fensterscheiben – Reinigen sich fast von selbst! Und beim Auto ist der Scheibenwischer - schon bald „Technik“ von gestern!"
This is from material advertising some sort of corporate investment company. Nanotechnology is one of the things they invest them. This is first and foremost a financial-themed text, but "Patentverwertung" seems to be a legal term, so that's why I'm asking it in Law/Patents. What exactly IS Patentverwertung? Patent application? Patent exploitation? Something else? TIA for your help.

Comment: "I love it when a clear solution emerges, and all the peer grades have left me in no doubt that "patent exploitation" is the way to go here. Many thanks Stephen and the peer graders - appreciate everyone's help."

(make use of) patent information
Other initiatives to make better use of patent information are taken in Austria with the establishment of a platform called 'Patentverwertung'; in Spain with aid from the Ministry of Industry; and in Belgium via the Office for Industrial Property Rights. In Germany subsidies to SMEs for patent application will be available from 1997 and 100 new teaching posts in patent information will be created at science and engineering faculties under a new programme Innovationsstimulierung der deutschen Wirtschaft durch wissenschaftlich-technische Information (INSTI).

: This is very broad. The specific activity is earning money on patents.

turning patent rights to account
In a recent translation of a legal document (infringement complaint), I used the phrase "The company .... turned the patent rights to account..."
Maybe I was a bit inspired by the archaic Ohio legaleze :)
However, it might fit the somewhat overdone marketing language?

writeaway
: a bit over the top imho. sounds truly archaic and no longer sounds very native in the context.

Of course, it's just the non-native jabber a poor foreign chap would pick up in an ESL course....
