Event Summary

The United States — United States International Trade Commission (ITC) has ruled in favor of General Atomics in a patent infringement case against Innoscience, affirming that Innoscience infringed on an General Atomics patent related to gallium nitride (GaN) technology. As a result, the ITC has ordered import and sales bans against Innoscience for its GaN products in the United States. This decision is subject to a 60-day review period by the US President. This ruling underscores the strength of General Atomics' intellectual property portfolio and its commitment to protecting its patents. General Atomics is also pursuing parallel patent disputes against Innoscience in Germany, where a Munich court has already found infringement of another General Atomics patent.
