Value Delivered
Through a proactive patent acquisition strategy, the client secured early access to Wi-Fi 7 patents, building a strong intellectual property (IP) portfolio. This early mover advantage not only mitigated potential infringement risks but also ensured a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving Wi-Fi 7 market.
Problems Solved
The client faced the challenge of entering the Wi-Fi 7 market without strong IP backing. As major players held strong Wi-Fi 7 portfolios, smaller companies risked facing litigation or licensing issues, similar to the Wi-Fi 6 market scenario. The client needed a solution to avoid becoming a target for patent holders like Huawei and Atlas, who had historically leveraged their IP for financial gains.
Solution Offered
GreyB performed a comprehensive patent landscape analysis, identifying potential sellers like R&D labs and universities who owned Wi-Fi 7 patents, including key enabling technologies such as HARQ and Multi-Link Operation. GreyB’s research highlighted patent holders such as Offino, which held valuable IP assets like US20230284290, focusing on Enhanced Multi-link UORA. The client was able to acquire these essential patents early, benefiting from favorable terms due to the current market conditions, where sellers were more interested in liquidity than outright sales.
By utilizing GreyB’s advanced Wi-Fi 7 Patent Dashboard and manual expert analysis, the client was able to secure key standard-essential patents (SEPs), providing them with a solid foundation for future market entry and negotiation power in the Wi-Fi 7 space.
