Portable WiFi / MiFi Router – Cost Savings for Corporates

2010-09-16T16:00:00.000+05:30

Portable WiFi routers - known as MiFi routers in US - help create a personal WiFi hotspot

They work with mobile networks 2G / 3G and provide WiFi connectivity to multiple gadgets like WiFi enabled smart phones + tablet devices + netbooks / notebooks + similar gadgets, on the go and at office, home. on travel - all for a single data subscription

If your company provides smart phones and pays for data subscription to your employees, it is worth looking at my note - one pager from http://www.box.net/shared/9oa9xrxtqn - for initial as well as recurring cost savings. Please note that the prices mentioned in my note are for Indian scenario

If your company pays for multiple data subscriptions like BlackBerry services + internet connection at home + USB data card etc - it is possible to go in for a single data subscription and save costs

Also if the number of connections are more, your existing telecom operator / new operator like BSNL [multiple circles in India and even C towns] can provide aggressive data plan rates

My ex Wipro colleague, through his newly formed company HQ in Bangalore, sells the Portable WiFi / MiFi routers. He can also arrange to get data SIM cards from telecom operators if the requirement is for 100 or more connections [only for India registered companies - as they need to comply with Govt guidelines for getting new SIM cards]

If you would like to save on data subscription charges - please respond

Value Add for developers, who are into integrating form based applications

2010-02-12T17:21:00.002+05:30

Bangalore based company promoted by my good friend PS Moorthy has developed an innovative product called “e Diary”

Download the presentation from http://www.box.net/shared/4rd6sm0pg3

They have conceptualized the product to be used by individuals – CEOs / Senior Managers / Architects / Doctors / Engineers / Financial Consultants / Sales Persons / Students etc – who would write their thoughts / notes / discussions on a regular diary page – which is captured electronically and stored in a Windows based computer

The beauty is words written in your own handwriting are searchable – currently in English only

Logical extension of the solution is, using e Diary for form based applications

Form based data filled in by on-field personnel can be made available in standard XML format on their laptop which then can be transmitted to update the enterprise applications

This indeed is a good news for companies that build form based add on solutions for enterprise applications

If you need development based on your forms / forms of your clients, the Bangalore based company can develop the application for a fee and give you the output as XML file

Also you can become channel partner for the hardware part to be sold to your clients

Is cloud computing hype, or something riskier? | Service-Oriented Architecture | ZDNet.com

2010-02-09T23:51:00.001+05:30

Jason Bloomberg, for one, says most larger enterprises are not ready for the cloud. “I just don’t see cloud computing striking it big in 2010,” he said. “When we talk to enterprise architects, we see a lot of curiosity and some dabbling. But, at the enterprise scale, we see too much resistance in terms of security and other issues to put a lot of investment into it.” Smaller organizations, on the other hand, are more inclined to sign on to the cloud.

How Much Can a Patent License Be Worth?

2009-09-15T10:44:00.001+05:30

Source: http://patentpending.blogs.com/patent_pending_blog/2005/11/how_much_can_a_.html

One way to figure out what a patent is worth when it is licensed is to do some sort of calculation of:

the expected cash flow from the patent
the expected growth rate of the cash flow
the risk of the cash flow and growth estimates being wrong and
the length of time the cash flow is expected to be recieved

The less the inventor has defined these factors, the greater the uncertainly and the less a potential licensee would likely pay.

Some patents are for sale on ebay which basically say "I have a patent, and I think its worth $23,000,000, so that is where the bidding will start." What the inventor has to communicate is why the investor would be better off putting his $23M into this patent rather than somewhere else, like the stock market.

Most people who have $23M first of all don't want to lose it, and second, they want to turn it into $50M! Unless the inventor can show how that $50M is going to happen in a rather certain and rapid way, the licensee would be crazy to drop his money into a venture with high risk.

Confidentiality Agreement vs Patent Pending

2009-09-15T10:37:00.001+05:30

Source: http://patentpending.blogs.com/patent_pending_blog/2005/10/confidentiality.html

Sometimes an inventor may wonder if he/she is safe to disclose his invention to a potential licensee if he has the licensee sign a confidentiality agreement. Or perhaps an inventor has a patent application filed, and wonders if he should also have a potential licensee sign a confidentiality agreement just to be extra safe. Here is my view on the value of both forms of protection.

Many companies view independent inventors as a total waste of their time, a pain in the butt, and a potential lawsuit. They often have policies that they won't sign confidentiality agreements, and really don't want to see an inventor's invention. The danger for them is that people in their own organization may be working on the same problem, and they could view the inventor's stuff, reject it, then a year later come out with the product they have been working on in their lab. The inventor could then sue them for breach of contract. With that possibility in mind they usually won't even look at an invention unless it is patent pending. If it is patent pending, then the invention is defined, so then their decision becomes 1) whether their in-house product is an infringement of the claims of the patent, and 2) can they prove they conceived of it first.

Their policy may be to never sign confidentiality agreements, to protect themselves from lawsuits by whacko inventors.

From the inventors point of view, if the potential licensee signs a confidentiality agreement and then breaches it, he can sue them for breach of contract. That's not too practical for most inventors, and the licensee knows it. So its not much of a threat.

If the inventor has a patent pending and the licensee rips him off the inventor can proceed to get the patent issued, and sue them for patent infringement. As damages he can get triple damages if he can prove that the infringement is willful. Patent damages start to accrue from the date that the application is published 18 months after it is filed, and he can ask for expedited prosecution if infringement is involved. The inventor could also get an injunction against the licensee ever selling the product. The inventor could also license the patent rights to the licensee's biggest competitor, or five of their competitors, who could afford to chase them through the courts and give them a spanking. Once the patent infringement case was won, the infringer would pay triple damages if the infringement was willful, have to quit selling the invention, and their investment in marketing is lost, but they will have created a need in the industry for the product which will translate to lots more sales of the product to the inventor or his licensee.

It's not likely that this sequence will happen, because the potential licensee will be able to see where things are going, and its just a lot better business to license the patent rights, and pay the inventor some money, and then for them to be able to keep their competitors out of that market if it's a good idea.

So if the inventor is patent pending the consequences of ripping him off are greater than if a confidentiality agreement is breached. By being patent pending going into the meeting, the inventor conveys that he is not a dummy, he has some legal advice, and is approaching this in a business-like manner.

It would not hurt to have a confidentiality agreement as well, but I don't think the inventor is likely to get it signed, and it doesn't buys him that much leverage anyway.

Ever think about why the label "patent pending" is such a powerful marketing tool?

2009-09-15T10:26:00.002+05:30

In the USA and some other countries, the assignees of a patent may have rights to require a license and obtain payment or other considerations for use of technology described in a pending patent application. Thus, partnering and sales decisions are very often made on the basis that the technology of interest is "patent pending". A savvy investor will avoid technology in published patent applications that might be subject to someone else's patent rights!

The US law (35 U.S.C. 154) is as follows:
(1) IN GENERAL - In addition to other rights provided by this section, a patent shall include the right to obtain a reasonable royalty from any person who, during the period beginning on the date of publication of the application for such patent under section 122(b), or in the case of an international application filed under the treaty defined in section 351(a) designating the United States under Article 21(2)(a) of such treaty, the date of publication of the application, and ending on the date the patent is issued-

Instant Cooler - Fast Freeze TM

2009-09-14T19:29:00.001+05:30

I am unlocking value for an India born US citizen Dr Shaam P Sundhar PhD - retired professor and a person who holds many patents to his credit

One such patent to his credit is Instant Cooler - reverse of microwave oven, which can cool a wine bottle / 3 cans of beverages in about 90 seconds and make ice in about 8 minutes

This is a very innovative product and every household in the world should posses atleast one - as there are many equipment people use at home as ovens and for heating but for instant cooling there is no device yet in the world

Assuming every one of about 1 billion homes in the world should own one and at $ 200 to $ 250 a piece, the business potential available is about $ 200 to $ 250 billions, hence it is a wonderful opportunity for maufacturers the world over

The patent holder, has the patent registered in USA and has gone through the process so that the patent is applicable in all countries. He has built prototype and has demonstrated the product in many US / International exhibitions

His patent covers all applicable technologies known today and with different technologies, the end product can be made at varying costs. The one suggested for mass production and sale to home use can be manufactured at $ 75 and the MSRP / MRP can be $ 249

The patent holder is looking for manufacturers to manufacture, distribute and sell under their own brand name / who wish to supply to other consumer durables manufacturers

The patent holder is keen to come back to and settle down in India and hence is looking for manufactureres based in India / Malaysia / Middle East

The patent holder would facilitate the prospective manufacturer to develop the product and do the pilot production. Beyond that he would offer help in technical improvements and design modifications / improvizations

The patent holder is not looking for manufacturers to assign the patent right, but for licensees on a non exclusive basis

The royalty part can be one time fee / on per piece basis / combination of both and the patent holder will not invest in the company to manufacture the product

As Consultant, helping the patent holder to commercialize the patent, my role would be to bring the prospective manufacturer and the patent holder to the agreement stage and negotiate and conclude the commercial part. I dont charge any fee from the prospective manufacturer

The one page brochure can be download from here

and the patent holder's contact details would be revealed to serious prospects - hence from the brochure his contact details are masked

The trade marks belong to the patent holder

Oxygen cum Water / Juice / Energy Drink Combo Bottle

2009-09-10T09:28:00.001+05:30

There have been good responses to my blog post "Looking for manufacturers from India / companies to setup manufacturing in India"

Here are further details made available for Oxygen cum Water / Juice / Energy Drink Combo Bottle; details for the Instant cooler - to cool beverages / drinks and to make / freeze ice creams in minutes would be made available later

As we move to the next stage, on Oxygen cum Water / Juice / Energy Drink Combo Bottle, you can download

The abstract of the patent with a sketch showing design of the combo bottle - you can download from here

The Non Disclosure Agreement [NDA] to be signed by the prospective licensee / associate to whom the manufacturing can be licensed on mutually agreeable commercial terms - you can download the document from here

The Model

The patent holder, Dr Shaam P Sundhar, and the manufacturer will enter into an agreement, valid for 20 years, for manufacturing, and / or filling & distribution of contents [oxygen and water / juice / energy drink]

The patent holder would facilitate the manufacturer for prototype development, quality assurance and during pilot batch production. The patent holder has already developed prototypes and the physical models are available with the Law Firm representing the patent holder

The commercial terms would essentially include royalty fee per bottle / one time fee / a combination of both

The engagement model will be on non-exclusive basis

Our Roles

Dr Shaam P Sundhar - the inventor, India born US citizen is a Ph D and retired Professor, holder of many inventions to his credit. He is about 67 years old and wants to settle down back in India. He would facilitate the prospective associate to develop the prototype and during the pilot production
Santosh Vikram Singh - Associate Director of about 190 years old law firm in India would handle the legal and contractual aspects of the association
Ganesh Srinivasan, Management Consultant with International Solutions Selling, Projects Implementation, Joint Venture, Collaboration and Procurement experience would be the bridge between the prospective manufacturer on one side and the patent holder and law firm on the other side. Ganesh Srinivasan brings in the business dimension
The commercial dealings are between the patent holder and the prospective associates - Santosh Vikram Singh and Ganesh Srinivasan do not charge the prospective associates / manufacturers for bringing the deal between them and the patent holder to fruition. However if the prospective associates want to avail further services, they are available on mutually agreeable terms from Santosh Vikram Singh and Ganesh Srinivasan

Key Business Perspective Inputs

The patent is applicable in many countries - currently US not included and US as a market can not be tapped

Hence the prospective associate / manufacturer should consider manufacturing in India and distribution worldwide. Europe, Middle East, India, China, Far East and ANZ are considered to offer good market potential for products filled in using this combo bottle

Even though the water market is crowded with many players - local / national / multi national, in many countries, the market size is huge and growing. Similar is the scenario for juices and the energy drink market is yet untapped in many countries

To partly / fully recover the costs of royalty, and combo bottle manufacturing costs, the manufacturers / distributors may sell the space on bottle for carrying suitable advertisements, this would also add to their income and margins - this is a strategic input from Ganesh Srinivasan

The Oxygen cum Water / Juice / Energy Drink Combo Bottle is a hot product with tremendous potential - remember the association would be available on non-exclusive basis ONLY

Feel free to e mail Ganesh Srinivasan to move forward

Looking for manufacturers from India / companies to setup manufacturing in India

2009-09-09T17:04:00.000+05:30

a] Oxygen cum water / juice / energy drink bottle
b] Instant cooler - to cool beverages / drinks and to make / freeze ice creams in minutes

These products can be manufactured and distributed globally; they have tremendous potential for volumes in millions of units to start with and can quickly grow to billions of units

Only serious players need to respond

Patent available for licensing in India - Oxygen and Water / Juice / Energy Drink in one bottle

2009-08-27T13:18:00.001+05:30

One of my associates Santosh Vikram Singh - Patent Attorney with a well known law firm, has handled patenting of a unique design of oxygen cum water bottle in India, by an India born US National - Dr Shaam P Sundhar - the inventor and retired professor. I met Dr Shaam Sundhar few days ago, very inspiring - he holds many patents

The inventor Dr Shaam P Sundhar is looking for Entrepreneurs / Companies / PET bottle manufacturers / Bottlers to buy licenses from him on non exclusive basis in India - to manufacture the bottle, fill and distribute in India

The abstract of the patent can be downloaded from here

While the 'oxygen can' holds oxygen at suitable pressure to enable the person to breath fresh oxygen on demand, the 'liquid chamber' can be filled with mineral water / juice / energy drink - hence the usage is varied and the potential is huge

I understand 'Oxygen Cans" are sold in India and we all know 'Energy Drinks' / 'Mineral Water' / 'Juice' etc sold separately. Look at both together in one convenient package - the license buyer can fill and sell as combo bottle and / or fill and sell individual compartments - meaning the license buyer can mix and match and price them accordingly

Those keen on could e mail Ganesh Srinivasan and further details can be made available on signing the NDA – which can be provided upon request

Few bottles made as proto type are available with Santosh Vikram Singh who operates from his Bangalore office

The inventor would help the license buyer - once again I reiterate on non-exclusive basis - during pilot production of the combo bottle
