CHICAGO — November 26, 2002 — Delphion Inc., a leading provider of software and services that enable companies to fully exploit intellectual assets, and yet2.com, the leading provider of products and services for the exchange of intellectual assets on the Internet, today announced they have partnered to create an integrated listing of licensable technologies and patents.
Delphion Research users can now see both yet2.com TechPak™ listings and Delphion IP Listings in the course of their normal IP research activities on the Delphion website. yet2.com users likewise have access to the vast compilation of patents available from Delphion when searching for technologies available for license on the yet2.com website.
"We offer the largest aggregation of cross-industry technologies available for sale," said Phil Stern, executive vice president of global operations for yet2.com. "yet2.com clients represent over a quarter of all the commercial R&D spending in the world. By making our exchange available through Delphion, we increase the potential for buyers and sellers to meet and license their intellectual property across industries and around the world."
"Companies worldwide are seeking ways to more fully leverage the value of their intellectual property assets," said Bob Smith, vice president and general manager of Delphion Research. "And that means finding buyers for some of their existing holdings as well as purchasing complementary technologies. The cross-site listing and search capabilities offered through the partnership between Delphion and yet2.com will set this in motion."
