SAN MATEO, CA and BARCELONA, SPAIN, November 11, 2008 – Fractus, SA, the pioneer developer of fractal antenna technology, and IPotential, LLC, the technology industry’s premier provider of intellectual property (IP) monetization services, today announced they have entered into a comprehensive patent licensing management relationship.  IPotential will be responsible for developing and managing Fractus’ patent licensing activities and programs in the IT and communications markets.
“This relationship with IPotential represents a new business opportunity for our company to earn value from our considerable intellectual property that we have brought to the telecom industry over the past decade,” said Ruben Bonet, President & CEO of Fractus.  “IPotential’s international expertise in patent licensing programs will help us monetize our extensive patent portfolio.”
“Fractus is the real thing, a true innovator in the area of wireless system design. Their invention of fractal based antennas has changed the face of mobile phone design, supporting the elimination of the external antenna and extending the ability of mobile phones to support communication on multiple bands,” said Ron Epstein, CEO of IPotential.  “The value of that innovation is confirmed by Fractus’ dominant patent portfolio, an asset that will allow Fractus to capture the full value of its inventiveness.  We are pleased to be assisting Fractus in managing their patent licensing programs.”
