Humax Licenses Microprocessor Patent Portfolio
"In just the first week of 2008, we're proud to welcome Humax to the long and distinguished roster of MMP licensees," said Jim Turley, president and CEO of Patriot Scientific. "The company's products are ubiquitous and user-friendly, and I like to think that our technology played a part in that success."
"The MMP Portfolio Licensing Program continues its rapid growth, with Humax being the tenth new licensee in just the past month," said Rick Schutte, vice president of Intellectual Property for Alliacense, Patriot's exclusive licensing partner. "Licensing activity has increased dramatically in the past month, most likely due to the successful Markman ruling and its settlement with the remaining defendants in the MMP patent infringement case in Texas."
The sweeping scope of applications using MMP Portfolio design techniques continues to encourage the world's leading manufacturers of end-user products from around the globe to become MMP Portfolio licensees. Since January 2006 more than 30 global companies from the U.S., Europe, Japan, Korea and Taiwan have purchased MMP Portfolio licenses.
