Mobile Consumer Electronics Components
I am a venture capital investor evaluating two opportunities in the mobile consumer electronics component sector. The first is developing force touch sensitive screens, the second auto-focus and image stabilisation actuators for mobile cameras.
I am looking for an expert to help me understand the component supply chain for korean and chinese mobile ce oems. How can i understand whether the traction these companies are claiming with oems is realistic and likely to convert into license deals? What are industry standard licensing terms? What is the stage gate process from initial contact to closing a deal?
