Empowering companies that power the world
Tulip is on a mission to foster innovation through balanced license solutions that benefit both patent holders and implementers of patented technologies.
We are dedicated to helping companies effectively implement cutting-edge, technology-driven solutions that will enhance the way we live, work, and play.
Delivering Decades of Innovation
LG Energy Solution and Panasonic Energy are pioneers in lithium-ion battery technology with a history of groundbreaking innovation spanning more than two decades and tremendous investments in research and development each year.
From core elements to cutting-edge developments in large capacity cells, these industry leaders have developed solutions across the full range of key technology areas, components, and processes.
Tulip Innovation was created to help ensure these solutions continue to drive future progress in the industry.
Tulip’s Solution
Lithium-ion batteries incorporate many patented technologies developed through years of research and advancement led by industry trailblazers like LG Energy Solution and Panasonic Energy.
That’s why both companies have engaged Tulip to offer a streamlined license under a combined portfolio of more than 5,000 patents from over 1,500 patent families related to lithium-ion battery technology – the largest aggregation of patents in the industry.
By combining these patents under joint licenses, Tulip’s program enhances battery manufacturers’ freedom to operate by providing a clear pathway to innovation in an otherwise complex patent landscape.
