Drawing on social practice theory and combining insights from recent scholarship on IP strategies and its management, this paper examines the cases of three pharmaceutical SME providing insights into how they appropriate returns on research and development (R&D) investments.

Moreover, this paper develops recommendations for SME regarding the professionalisation of their IP management practices.
