BMW Sues Broadcom Over Patent Dispute Tied to Avago Portfolio
Avago owns three patents that Broadcom, as parent, is said to cover under a 2020 BMW license agreement. The dispute also ties to Avago’s 2016 acquisition of Broadcom, which moved semiconductor and connectivity technology into the patent-owning structure. The entity became Broadcom Inc. in 2018 after relocating legal incorporation to Delaware.
