Santa Clara Technology IP Recovery Hub
UCIC
Uniform Commercial Investigation Center
UCIC conducts intellectual property recovery, digital work product preservation, technical systems inquiry, computer fraud investigation, trade secret protection, public record due diligence, assignment review, and technology-facing commercial investigation.
Intellectual property is not a side issue. In a technology-driven world, software, systems, media, authorship records, design logic, technical workflows, datasets, trade secrets, and commercial identity often represent the core value of an enterprise. UCIC treats technical work product and intellectual property as recoverable and protectable commercial assets.
UCIC is positioned at the investigative front line: before first response, before enforcement strategy, before outside escalation, and before recovery action begins.
Uniform Commercial Investigation Center
Centralized commercial investigation for recoverable technology value.
UCIC exists as the Santa Clara coordination center for technology-facing IP recovery, digital asset inquiry, technical evidence preservation, trade secret protection, assignment review, and commercially relevant investigation before formal response.
The center is designed for matters where ownership, authorship, access, attribution, commercial identity, digital records, software, systems, workflows, or technical value require structured inquiry and preservation.
Information has value. Technical value creates property interests. Property interests require records, preservation, and recovery pathways.
Primary Division
IP Recovery & Management
The IP Recovery & Management division identifies, documents, preserves, and advances recovery pathways for commercially valuable intellectual property, digital work product, authorship records, media assets, trade-secret materials, technical systems, investigation logs, evidence trails, and assignment-backed commercial interests.
