Ans check out history of intellectual ventures, made $6 billion+ so far on IP. Interesting as now they are positioning more as start up factory building off of patents under their care.
Maybe this is a way for ventures to offload some of the patent IP protection work and focus on new initiatives. Might not be a bad merger company if they were ever able.
