Seattle – April 4, 2019: Tangible IP Secures License for Seller of Multi Factor Authentication Portfolio
TANGIBLE IP, LLC, an international patent brokerage and Intellectual Property advisory firm headquartered in Seattle, with over 3000 patents successfully brokered, announced the limited licensing of a patent portfolio pertaining to multi factor authentication, belonging to WiKID, Inc. The identity of the licensee nor financial details of the agreement could be disclosed. This license provides further validation to the scope and relevance of the WiKID portfolio with respect to the secure authentication technology. The portfolio proves its foundational value as it is directly relevant to the FIDO Alliance standards. The portfolio remains available for sale to others and highly relevant to industry, as it is widely practiced by a number of industry leaders. It should be noted that the above license was voluntary and occurred as a result of Tangible IP’s outreach to sell the portfolio and did not involve any assertion related activity.
“We reached out to Tangible IP after hearing about their great reputation and we are very happy with the way they have represented our patent assets so far”, said Nick Owen, President of WiKID. “We understand that it is extremely difficult to sell or otherwise monetize patents without having to litigate and Tangible IP did just that, by extracting significant value for our patent through a voluntary license, while allowing us to continue to find a good home for this asset ultimately. This is testament to the quality of their work and outreach and the depth of their network. For small companies like us, this is by far the best outcome to recoup value for our innovations and we would recommend Tangible IP to all patent owners who are in our situation”, added Owen.
“Each day we can bring parties together without having to assert patents is a good day”, said Louis Carbonneau, CEO & Founder of Tangible IP. “Offering patents for sale rather than trying to assert them offers us the opportunity to have candid discussions with industry players who may benefit from either acquiring or licensing the assets and it was allowed our client in this case to enter into a mutually beneficial license agreement, in a very amicable context. We could not feel more gratified than providing value this way, while retaining the ability to enter in subsequent transactions of the same nature.”

Seattle, WA – FEBRUARY 21, 2018: THE COMPLETE SALE OF LARGE AUTOMOTIVE COLLISION AVOIDANCE PATENT PORTFOLIO
Leading Patent Brokerage Firm Off to a Great Start in 2018 after Posting Strong Results in 2017
TANGIBLE IP, LLC, an international patent brokerage and Intellectual Property advisory firm headquartered in Seattle, with almost 3000 patents sold, announced that it has successfully brokered the sale of a patent portfolio of close to 150 assets owned by well-known French Sovereign Patent fund (SPF) France Brevets, in the Automotive & Self-Driving and Unmanned Vehicles area. The portfolio had been originally developed by a France-based defense contractor and contained assets covering LIDAR, RADAR, HUD and other detection-related technology. Financial details of the agreement were not disclosed, nor was the identity of the acquirer.
“Historically, we have been focused on acquiring patents ourselves and monetizing them primarily via our licensing programs”, said Yann Dietrich, Senior Vice President Licensing / Director Strategy & Development at France Brevets. “As our investment strategy evolved, and time came to start divesting some of our own portfolios, we looked around for a reputable firm to represent us and decided to go with Tangible IP given their great track record and wide industry recognition. We knew they would spare no efforts leveraging their deep network around the world to find us a suitable buyer, and that they would stay involved until the very end. They totally delivered on those promises; not only they were a dedicated advocate throughout the whole marketing and negotiation process, they also provided strategic advice during closing and found some creative solutions to address unusual situations that could otherwise have impacted our transaction adversely. We are very pleased that we retained them in the first place and plan to use their services again in the near term”, said Dietrich.
“It has been an honor to assist France Brevets in this large transaction”, said Louis Carbonneau, founder & CEO of Tangible IP. “As one of the more responsible patent licensing entity in the market, they are able to recognize that there are some patents that are better suited to finding a good home with an operating company who can productize them, than generating licensing revenues through licensing activities. This portfolio is of very high quality and directly applicable to the emerging autonomous vehicles industry. Developed with aerospace in mind, it will now get a second life in the automotive space through its new owner. This is a true win-win and we feel gratified that we could support through our brokerage services this business model diversification and return substantial value to France Brevets and its stakeholders”, said Carbonneau.
