NeoMedia Technologies, Inc (NEOM)

[Be Confident]

I am unable to locate the patent award at present, but do recall the announcement (although admittedly, these days my memory is hardly what it used to be). Have a run at these two links:

About NeoMedia Technologies:
NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: NEOM) is the global leader in mobile barcode scanning solutions. Our technology allows mobile devices with cameras to read 1D and 2D barcodes and provide "one click" access to mobile content. Combining this technology with advanced analytics and reporting capabilities revolutionizes the way advertisers market to mobile consumers. NeoMedia provides the infrastructure to make 2D camera barcode scanning and its associated commerce easy, universal, and reliable — worldwide. The company's mobile phone technology, NeoReader, reads and transmits data from 1D and 2D barcodes to its intended destination. Our Code Management and Code Clearinghouse platforms create, connect, record, and transmit the transactions embedded in the 1D and 2D barcodes, like web-URLs, text messages (SMS), and telephone calls, ubiquitously and reliably."

"This coordinated approach allows each of the participants to benefit from the efforts of the others, including participation from barcode leaders NeoMedia, 3GVision, Mobile Data Systems, and Mobile Discovery, who are all using the Neustar clearinghouse. The clearinghouse is open to other industry players who wish to benefit from the mass market and scale that can be achieved through an open, interoperable approach."

In finding the above, I performed a quick DD on several of the companies mentioned and found a tidbit worth some consideration:

Should you have stayed alert through the above you will have seen the name Mobile Data Systems as one of the partners tied to the Neustar project. Now have a run at this (and in doing so, recall that Neom performed its reverse merger with Qode Services Corporation in February 2014...coincidence??):

All of the above is based upon a theory of mine and should be considered weak at best!

Best,
