Manchester-based Nanoco Group has stepped up its legal battle with tech giant Samsung by launching a funded law suit in China.
Nanoco, a developer of materials used in the manufacture of monitors and TV screens, said the action is over the “willful infringement of the group’s IP”.
This is Nanoco’s third law suit involving intellectual property against Samsung, in addition to action in the US and Germany, and is based on a sister patent to one of the patents in the US litigation.
Nanoco Group PLC (LON:NANO) leads the world in the research, development and large-scale manufacture of heavy metal-free nanomaterials for use in displays, lighting, vertical farming, solar energy and bio-imaging.
