Elpida Buys Qimonda Patents out of Bankruptcy

Posted on August 7, 2009 by Chun Ng

Digitimes reports that Qimonda has sold its technology licenses and patents related to GDDR memory to Elpida.  Businessweek reports the same thing. 

Recall that Germany based Qimonda entered bankruptcy in 2009 due to the difficult DRAM pricing environment.  Interesting to note that Elpida is simply acquiring the technology and some employees, but not any of the capital equipment or plants of Qimonda.  Anyone still doubting where the true value of a tech company lies?!?!?

 

(Hint:  Engineers and IP)
