IPValue Affiliate Licenses Samsung to Marlin Semiconductor Patent Portfolio

IPValue Management, Inc. (IPValue) and Longitude Licensing Ltd. announced that Longitude has granted Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. a license to the semiconductor portfolio held by Longitude subsidiary Marlin Semiconductor Ltd. (Marlin).

Marlin acquired its portfolio of logic, memory, manufacturing process, and packaging patents from United Microelectronics Corporation in 2021.

This deal continues IPValue’s track record of success in patent licensing in the semiconductor market. “IPValue is a leader in licensing significant semiconductor patent portfolios, generating returns to innovators while ensuring freedom to operate to implementors. We have a reputation for rigorous analysis, fair dealing, and a professional approach that enables us to efficiently license the ecosystem, generally through business negotiations rather than litigation,” said John Lindgren, who has led IPValue as CEO since 2017.
