Clairvoyante's Pentile Technology Sold To Samsung

Our portfolio company Clairvoyante, which I've blogged about here and here, has sold its Pentile display technology intellectual property portfolio to Samsung Electronics of Korea. SEC had their own reasons for structuring the transaction in this fashion, but the Pentile development team will continue to work on improvements to display technology in a new entity to be headed by Clairvoyante founder Candice Brown Elliot. I've seen the development plans for the group, but as usual can't say anything specific. I will say that Samsung has some very exciting plans for where it will take the technology, and I look forward to (finally!) buying product with Pentile displays.
