SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AQUA Licensing, a leading patent advisory and transaction firm, has been

retained to manage the sale of a second patent portfolio previously owned by Nokia, including patents developed by

Alcatel-Lucent / Bell Labs, Nokia Technologies and Nokia Networks.

This offering follows on the heels of the Telecommunications Portfolio I offering made in August of 2017 via AQUA

Licensing. The previous portfolio consisted of 4,260 patent families. To date, buyers have been identified for a significant

portion of the initial offering.

The new Telecommunications Portfolio II offering comprises 557 patent families, developed by Alcatel-Lucent / Bell Labs,

Nokia Technologies and Nokia Networks.

This portfolio is predominately made up of former Alcatel-Lucent patents, which are around 83% of the assets, including

patents from the former AT&T Bell Labs.

Around 10% of the patent families originated from the former Devices and Services business of Nokia. Though the

business was acquired by Microsoft in 2014, Nokia retained the intellectual property in its Nokia Technologies business.

The remaining 7% of the patent families originated from Nokia Networks, previously Nokia Siemens Networks, formed in

2007 through a combination of Nokia’s networks business and Siemens’ carrier-related operations for fixed and mobile

networks. Nokia acquired Siemens’ share of the business in 2013.

Patents in Telecommunications Portfolio II span seven technology clusters; cellular access and mobile core, components

and devices, fixed and IP networking, multimedia and imaging, security, services and applications, and short-range radios

and home networking.

“As we continue to optimize our own patent portfolio, we are pleased that AQUA will make a further set of former Nokia

patents available to operating companies and startups, enabling them to obtain strategic or defensive IP advantage. We

believe AQUA has an innovative approach and we are encouraged by their early success with the first offering,” said Ilkka

Rahnasto, head of Patent Business at Nokia.

“We’re extremely pleased to be working with Nokia again on this next portfolio. The first former Nokia portfolio offered

through us back in August generated a great deal of interest, and we’re confident that the superior assets in this second

Nokia portfolio will offer buyers an exceptional opportunity to obtain significant value and defensive enforcement

advantages at a reasonable price,” said Mark McMillan, Managing Director of AQUA Licensing.
