AT&T's Intellectual Property arm is the often unheralded, but important organization working behind the scenes to protect and preserve innovations on new-generation applications and enhanced services for businesses and consumers.
And, it may be the industry's best kept secret.
AT&T Intellectual Property is one of the world's largest intellectual property operations, sitting on a portfolio treasure chest of more than 5,000 patents that date back more than 100 years to Alexander Graham Bell.
We're the team of professionals rolling up our sleeves in a world of patents, trademarks and copyrights to help foster increased industry innovation and broaden the use of AT&T intellectual property in the marketplace through asset sales and licensing.
AT&T's philosophy is that strong, fair management of intellectual property is critical to fostering continual innovation. Our licensing program is focused on maximizing access to AT&T innovations, while also ensuring that investments in research and innovation are valued fairly and appropriately.
AT&T Intellectual Property is a partner and catalyst for business growth in the communications industry by actively pursuing relationships that increase the use and adoption of intellectual property. We accomplish this through sales, licenses, equity transactions, donations, reseller arrangements and other related activities.
