Sauvegarder Investment Management (“SIM IP”), a leader in intellectual property-based financing, investment, and monetization, announced the successful completion of a Patent Purchase Agreement (PPA) with FusionLayer, Inc. (“FusionLayer”), a pioneering network technology company originating from Finland. This strategic acquisition underscores SIM IP’s commitment to identifying and leveraging high-value global intellectual property, particularly groundbreaking innovations emerging from key technology hubs like Finland, and represents a significant and valuable expansion of SIM IP’s diverse IP asset holdings.
The agreement grants SIM IP full ownership and control of a cutting-edge Cloud Computing, Virtual Networking and Internet Protocol Address Management patent portfolio, further strengthening its position as a premier entity in the international IP market.
