MIAMI and TURKU, Finland, Sept. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sauvegarder Investment Management ("SIM IP"), a global leader in intellectual property-based investment and monetization, is pleased to announce the successful completion of its acquisition of over 200 video coding patent assets from Gurulogic Microsystems Oy ("Gurulogic"), a Finnish technology firm renowned for its pioneering video, security, and data technology innovations.

This acquisition represents SIM IP's continued commitment to expanding its robust and diversified IP portfolio, following its initial purchase of Gurulogic's breakthrough video patent assets earlier this year. The newly acquired patents comprise core technologies with wide-reaching applications across video conferencing and streaming and advanced coding and compression solutions of video, image, and other data, further strengthening SIM IP's footprint in both legacy and emerging digital sectors.

Anne-Mari Lummevuo, Patent Director of Gurulogic, commented, "After a few scattered patent sales in the past, it is wonderful to have a team that recognizes the full value of our legacy portfolio and take it over as a whole. SIM IP was really a match for us."

Mr. Heikki Salmela, Chairman of the Board at GuruLogic added, "It's a pleasure to work with top professionals on cutting-edge technology, especially as we are now focusing on, among other things, future-proof quantum-safe technologies that we believe will be groundbreaking."
