Competition Law and Regulation in European Telecommunications: Nortel Networks' patent portfolio up for auction
CHICAGO — One of the more intriguing auctions scheduled later this month won't involve fine art or vintage sports cars or other expensive trinkets, but it is expected to attract some deep pockets.
The bankrupt telecommunications company Nortel Networks is selling a cache of patents that cover a wide range of technologies used in wireless phones and infrastructure, Internet search and social networking.
"We think it's likely that the Nortel portfolio will sell for several billion dollars," said Raymond Zenkich, a partner at Red Chalk Group, a Chicago-based patent broker. "I don't think there's ever been a patent portfolio sold for this amount."
Google, whose Android software is used in smartphones, set the opening bid for the private auction at $900 million.
The winner will take home a formidable patent portfolio that could be used to develop new products or services. The patents also could be used as a legal weapon in the highly litigious wireless industry. The U.S. Justice Department reportedly is concerned that a tech giant like Google or Apple could leverage the Nortel portfolio to stifle competition or extract huge licensing fees from rivals.
