Take 4G 5G Patents From Paperweights to Profit!

November 19, 2024

Are you looking to maximize the value of your 4G/5G patents?

We’ve observed a growing trend of Non-Practicing Entities (NPEs) acquiring quality 4G/5G patents and generating significant ROI through strategic licensing. Recognizing this demand, Asian telecom companies are seizing the opportunity to sell their 4G/5G patents to NPEs.

By strategically partnering with the right NPEs such as Apex Beam Technologies, Pegasus Wireless Innovation, PanOptis, and others, you can not only achieve a substantial return on your patents but also ensure they are utilized to their full potential in the market.

For example:

In April 2024, Apex Beam Technologies, a US-based NPE, launched a 5G patent litigation campaign against Apple. Upon examining the patents in the lawsuit, we found that Apex Beam had acquired them from a Chinese telecom company, Shanghai Langbo Communication Technology.

– Last year, another US-based NPE, Pegasus Wireless Innovation, acquired 5G patents from the Korean telecom company KT Corporation to litigate against US telecom companies like AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile

– Similarly, Apple was ordered to pay $300 million to PanOptis for infringing a patent related to 4G/LTE technology. PanOptis Holdings had acquired patents from companies like Samsung, Panasonic (Japan), and LG.

And these are just a few examples of many.
