Let's make sure this jerk's business: #Solid8 loses customers. If you are a #Solid8 customer and condemn #michaellofthouseracist please take your business elsewhere and speak out against him.
This is deeply disturbing to me for many reasons. I will share a few here so please read this entire thread if you have time. First, #MichaelLofthouse's own sister-in-law is Asian and so is his niece. Imagine having this guy in your family and not just on your twitter feed. 1/6
Our “prediction” of the next boom in the #patent industry occurring in 2030 got cited in the panel on corporate #IP#monetization at #IPdealmakers where someone threw out that we’ll have to use #litigation to establish value till then 🧐
We’re super proud to have been able to sponsor the VIP Dinner for #IPdealmakers @butcherandbankernyc. Many thanks to @IPDealmakers and Wendy Chou @ipgossip for making this possible. I know it looks like it’s a prison dinner but really the guests were free to leave!
The 6th #IPdealmakers Forum does not disappoint. Panels revealed:
- patent market in 2018 was better than 2017
- average asking price was $280K per #patent
- some patent sales fail, but unsold portfolios become “problems” (enforced?)
- $$$ coming into #licensing
Great opening session at #IPdealmakers. Greg Kisor of @IVinvents (Intellectual Ventures): “It’s easy to deploy capital, it’s hard to get a good return.” @wolanyk (Katherine Wolanyk) of @BurfordCapital: “It’s hard to deploy capital properly.”
Wendy Chou @ipgossip doing a great job opening #LFDealmakers on a beautiful morning in #NYC. Good representation from all sectors of the #litigationfinance industry.
