This podcast episode features Michael Kessler, CEO of sliQue Robotics, arguing that hardware and communication protocol patents offer superior long-term strategic value compared to software patents. Kessler supports his claim using his extensive experience in the tech industry, providing examples of successful hardware and protocol patent strategies employed by major companies. He contrasts this with the rapid evolution of software, which often renders software patents less effective. The episode emphasizes the potential for substantial revenue from licensing hardware, especially standard-essential communication protocol patents. Kessler concludes that focusing on these patent types offers more reliable, long-term returns on R&D investment.
