Bradium Technologies and Microsoft Settle Patent Lawsuit


General Patent Corporation (GPC), a leading patent licensing firm, announced today that its subsidiary, Bradium Technologies LLC (Bradium), has settled its patent infringement litigation with Microsoft (News - Alert).

Bradium sued Microsoft in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware in 2015 (Case No. 1:15 CV 31). The trial was scheduled for January of 2018. The parties have resolved their differences and reached an amicable settlement. Microsoft has taken a license under the Bradium patents, but other terms and conditions of the settlement are confidential.

"We are pleased to reach a settlement and to license Microsoft under the Bradium patents," said Alexander Poltorak, Chairman and CEO of General Patent Corporation.

Bradium owns an extensive patent portfolio, which generally relates to optimizing image delivery over limited bandwidth communications channels by reducing latency in transmitting full resolution images over the Internet, particularly for complex images such as geographic, topographic and other highly detailed maps. GPC is the manager and exclusive licensing agent for Bradium.
