The patents have been applied for, not issued. Once issued they become published automatically. It takes, at minimum, 2 years for the USPTO to approve a patent. As long as EPGL filed the applications, which they have, their IP is protected. And yes, they are non-published, which is what all companies do, whenever possible. The question for investors is, will the patents get approved. There lies one of the risks of investing in a Start-Up company.
