“And early in 2020, IBM joined the License on Transfer Network (”LOT Network”), a non-profit community of companies that supports open innovation and responsible stewardship of technology. LOT Network affirms the traditional use of patents—safeguarding the innovations of companies who research, develop, and sell new technologies— while protecting its members against companies who purchase or acquire patents from others.”
