Amazon and Huawei have entered into a multi-year patent cross-license agreement that resolves pending litigation between them.
โHuawei is pleased to exchange patent rights with Amazon,โ said Alan Fan, Head of Huaweiโs Intellectual Property Rights Department. โPatent licensing expands the number of companies that can use what otherwise would be proprietary technologies, which, in turn, provides consumers with more innovative products and services.โ
โAmazon respects Huaweiโs worldwide patent portfolio, innovations, and contributions to the standardization process. Amazon also respects Huaweiโs efforts to license its patents to companies like Amazon, which frequently use industry technical standards when inventing new products and services for customers,โ stated Scott Hayden, Vice President of IP for Amazon.
