A recent review of assignments of US patent assets made public by the USPTO reveals that the divestiture from Shanghai Langbo Communication Technology previously reported is bigger than at first blush. Such USPTO records also contain transfers of a signal transmission portfolio to a company with plans “to license its IP, look for potential partnerships, and be open to attractive acquisition possibilities”; of an image processing portfolio to a Texas entity held indirectly by an IP figure touting experience through “every stage of the patent process from initial invention to patent prosecution to exercising patent rights through licensing, sale and litigation”; and of a wireless communications portfolio to a licensing executive leaving one firm to set up his own.
