Samsung announces new R&D plans to strengthen its lead in memory, page-18

Just like to add, further to this and imo, it would be in the best interest of 4DS and IMEC to sell sooner than later. News of 4DS MB success would surely be reaching the big boys, and with the recent news flow from these companies, I believe they're looking to replicate 4DS metrics without paying for it, what with the R&D initiatives.

So the question is, do 4DS sell their 30+ patents before someone bigger has the same metrics, or do they JV and/or partner up to expand the use of their metrics for maximum success.

The silence tells me that all options are on the table. I am eagerly awaiting an update of these stratetic meetings.
