New York, Feb. 3, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ( http://www.myprgenie.com ) -- ICAP Patent Brokerage announces the sale of MediaEquals Ltd. assets relating to a patented electronic media trading platform specializing in print, radio, television, outdoor media, and digital media.
"We are delighted to be offering these exciting media trading assets for sale. This is an important opportunity which provides a platform and software tools for media buyers and sellers to transact across an electronic media trading platform," says Dean Becker, CEO of ICAP Patent Brokerage. Acquisition of these assets, including software, patents, trade secrets and know-how should be attractive to financial exchanges, media companies, online auction sites, search engine providers, and various business models that cater to a fully completed electronic transaction.
The MediaEquals electronic media trading platform has already successfully transacted over 250,000 media assets.
Trends in Media Trading
Today, over 85% of all media offerings are traded manually on the phone, or by email, but the current trend in all trading platforms is moving towards being an online and fully electronically executable platform. These assets include fully automated and anonymous techniques for Real Time Bidding (RTB) which makes this patented platform increasingly relevant.
The patent portfolio provides very early protection for all forms of digital and traditional media to be traded in an online platform. These protected technologies are directly applicable to RTB, enabling multiple media 'deals' to be closed between multiple traders simultaneously.
