Qualcomm has announced a multi-year strategic relationship agreement between its subsidiary, Qualcomm Technologies and Samsung Electronics, in various technology areas and across a range of mobile devices. This deal expands the companies’ longstanding relationship as technology and business partners this year and beyond, through the transition to 5G.
The company also announced that it has expanded its global patent cross-license agreement with Samsung covering mobile devices and infrastructure equipment. The amended agreement is consistent with Qualcomm’s global handset-level licensing practices. As part of the agreement, Samsung will be withdrawing its interventions in Qualcomm’s appeal of the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KTFC) decision in the Seoul High Court.
