WILUS CEO DR. JIN SAM KWAK FEATURED IN IAM
IAM, the leading publication focused on intellectual property value creation in the technology sector, today published an exclusive interview with WILUS INC. founder and CEO Dr. Jin Sam Kwak.
The article traces WILUS’ twelve-year history as an independent, employee-owned R&D lab that uses licensing royalties to support its contributions to next-generation technology standards.
“The realisation that even small and medium-sized enterprises with strong technical expertise could play a role in standardisation, beyond large corporations, state-funded research institutes, or universities, inspired the establishment of Wilus,” Dr. Kwak tells IAM in the article.
The piece also presents Dr. Kwak’s views on the role played by patent licensing in ensuring the survival of independent R&D labs like WILUS:
“We believe in fostering an environment that encourages innovation while also respecting intellectual property rights. In essence, our patent enforcement strategy is a reflection of our commitment to innovation, fair competition, and the protection of our technological advancements. It's a conscious effort to ensure that our investments in research and development are respected and that we can continue to contribute meaningfully to the technological landscape."
