SigEx Foundry Rights Management
Technology Licensing
The emerging Enhanced Communications industry offers excellent opportunities to reinvent and extend existing great technologies. Many of The Foundry’s development projects involve morphing the best of existing technologies into new applications, new architectures and new markets.
Most of the technologies required to implement the Enhanced Communications vision exist today. What’s needed are new architectures to bridge incompatible networks and enable different technologies to work together in new ways. For example, there are chips and routers available today that can manage very high capacity transport pipes, but these and other very advanced technologies are either underutilized or are incompatible with other existing technologies. New multi-protocol, multi-transport parallel architectures can open new opportunities through technology licensing for a wide range of existing technologies.
SigEx and The Foundry bring the knowledge to develop and implement multi-protocol, multi-transport architectures. We are seeking to license a wide variety of existing advanced technologies that will provide the building blocks for new Enhanced Communications solutions.
Areas of interest include all types of wireless technologies – 802.11, Bluetooth, Ultrawide, Tri3G, WCDMA, cdma2000 and TD-SCDMA; embedded technologies; and voice technologies such as speech to text, voice navigation, and speech-enabled web navigation. Other possibilities include rights management, and peer-to-peer networking.
About SigEx Ventures
SigEx Ventures, Inc. is a private investment fund focused exclusively on the emerging Enhanced Communications industry. Using funds raised from individual (angel) investors, SigEx Ventures funds projects for the Foundry’s development programs. Thus, SigEx Ventures, in conjunction with the Foundry, enables fully-funded, viable structures for business R&D to address alpha-beta development projects for strategic customers that include global telecommunications carriers, network equipment manufacturers, information technology companies, and digital content providers. The projects developed by the Foundry are all pre-funded by the SigEx Ventures investments fund for a period of 12 to 18 months. The most successful of these may become sustainable ventures.
About the Foundry
The Foundry is a revolutionary training, research and development center that uses proven methodologies and management techniques to create successful companies based on advanced technology innovations. Much more than a think tank where great ideas are tested and challenged, the Foundry provides the structure and guidance to assist its project companies with tasks such as recruiting and training staff; obtaining financing, research grants, and patents; and professional services.
The Foundry development programs provide fully funded viable structures for business R&D, drawing lessons from years of experience. Through the Foundry’s training program, CEO Christopher Cantell and President & COO Frédéric Artru unveil a new practical orientation for those serious about launching a new career in Enhanced Communications. The Foundry develops and launches successful new project-companies, while providing enough freedom to allow for innovation and enough structure to control risk.

About the Founders
Christopher M. Cantell and Frédéric Artru have proven, throughout their careers, their ability to attract talented teams, technologies and capital around fundamental ideas. They have constantly shown their willingness to adapt to changes in their environment and most importantly their capacity to succeed. Chris and Frédéric have demonstrated expertise in the technology, marketing and financial subjects they are implementing, and their diverse experiences have allowed them to test, develop, evaluate and validate their methodologies and techniques.
