DisplaySearch and cintelliq announce Organic Semiconductor Patent Report distribution agreement

DisplaySearch, the worldwide leader in display market research and consulting and cintelliq ltd, the world's leading provider of information services and strategic consulting to the organic semiconductor industry, have announced a distribution agreement whereby cintelliq will produce and DisplaySearch will market and distribute the Quarterly Organic Semiconductor Patent Analyst Report (OSPA).

The Quarterly Organic Semiconductor Patent Analyst Report is a 200+ page quarterly report that provides an overview of patents related to organic semiconductor technologies that were published or granted by the European, Japanese, US or World patent offices. Each issue analyses about 1200 patents, covering areas such as LEDs, substrates, photovoltaics, transistors, memory cells, encapsulation, materials, patterning, deposition, lasers, sensors, and fabrication.

The report classifies patents to identify areas of greatest activity, as well as highlighting interesting trends in research and patenting. The report also analyses the patents by assignee, tracking the major players in the industry and spotting new entrants to the field. Patents issued to academic organizations are monitored, as are patents issued to the major OLED licensors, Kodak and CDT, and their licensees.

Each issue of the report identifies over 100 patents as being of particular interest. The report analyses these in more detail and provides the abstract for each. In addition, around ten patents are given an in-depth review.

• Gain a comprehensive overview of patenting activity in all areas of organic semiconductor technology
• Monitor the patenting activity of competitors, the major players and new entrants
• Identify new trends in research and in patenting strategies
• Track large numbers of relevant patents for a fraction of the cost of using on-line patent databases or patenting specialists
• Run your own customized analysis on the cleaned and filtered patent spreadsheet data included with the report

The next issue of OSPA will be released at the end of April 2006 and analyses 1598 patents for July-September 2005.

According to Barry Young, SVP, DisplaySearch, "The OSPA helps to round out our product offering and maintains DisplaySearch's position as the leading provider of OLED market intelligence in the world."

According to Craig Cruickshank, Principal Analyst and Founder, "As the OLED and flexible display industries continue to grow and mature, access to comprehensive patent information and analysis will become a key source of technology and competitor intelligence. cintelliq is delighted to be working with DisplaySearch to enable them to provide their customers with a unique publication that delivers comprehensive information and analysis of organic semiconductor patents."
