Many large corporations, professional firms, and universities comprise the Licensing Executives Society's membership. We believe that their conference provides an important forum for Biophan to continue ongoing efforts to increase visibility about its technology leadership in the biomedical industry.

"We're a prolific innovator. We have vigorously protected our technological developments by establishing a strong U.S. and international patent portfolio," said Mr. Weiner. "We believe that this business strategy will lead to significant revenue growth for Biophan, as we partner with companies to take these technologies to market."
