Virtual Patent Counsel for Disk-Drive Technology Company
At its peak, the disk drive industry had more than 50 companies, including major players such as IBM, Samsung, Hitachi, Toshiba and others. Today, however, only three firms remain.
We worked with the company from its initial start-up, serving as its virtual in-house patent counsel, developing its patent portfolio, and helping to broadly license its technology. As the industry faced brutal competition and the technology evolved, we worked closely with our client to ensure its patent strategy helped position it for success.
