Microsoft is extending its intellectual property
and R&D program to smaller companies and startups, the company said

The company launched its Microsoft
Intellectual Property (IP) Ventures as a complement to its policy of
licensing IP to larger corporations and governments.

Microsoft did not disclose financial details of its global program,
but did say IP Ventures is run as a part of its $6.8 billion R&D
division.
While Microsoft is planning on expanding the number and variety of
technologies available for licensing, entrepreneurs can now choose
from 20 technologies developed by Microsoft, such as artificial intelligence,
database visualization tools and counterfeit-resistant optical fiber technology.
A mobile video communications platform, code-named Portrait, is available for licensing and runs on local area networks, dial-up networks and even wireless networks with bandwidths as low as 9.6 Kbps.
Another project available for licensing, code-named Wallop, is an online community technology that includes standard tools for interaction with buddy lists and building blocks to create inferred social networks that automatically
identify whom a user interacts with, not just contacts the user has
added. The technology also lets users personalize profiles using skins
and adding blogs, music and photos.
Also available for licensing is a technology code-named LaunchTile, which
lets mobile device users browse information, documents and
applications with one hand. The technology relies on what Microsoft
calls a dynamic launch tile instead of a static icon.
