     The book notes:

     Yet2.com was founded in 1999 in Cambridge, Massachusetts and in a short period of time it became the biggest worldwide market for patents. Specifically, it has extensive experience in matching demand and supply for intellectual property assets: from patents to complete packages of technology and know-how. The purpose is to allow all parties to maximize the return on their investments. Whether the users are working with a team of their licensing experts or they are using the virtual technology marketplace, Yet2.com offers companies and individuals the tools and expertise to acquire, sell, license and liverage valuable intellectual assets. In 2002 Yet2.com was bought by Schiper Plc, a British company leading in patent-and product-licensing across Europe. With over 800,000 users, in December 2004 Yet2.com represented more than 30 categories, from chemicals to new materials, from electronics to consumer goods. As a technology marketplace, the company is a traditional many-to-many operator, where seekers of specific technologies may find sellers of patents. Sellers can remain anonymous until they have qualified a buyer and they can set restrictions, exercise listings at any time and accept only the introductions they consider adequate. Potential buyers can be supported in their search for a specific technology by services such as the 'Free patent search', which allow users to save, manage and organize their patent search, and 'Consult with an expert', which provides professional consulting and expert witness services from over 10,000 industry experts covering 30,000 areas of science, engineering, regulation and business. Seekers of specific technologies can remain anonymous, but they have to provide some information such as company type, annual revenue, years in business and geographic area of their activity. The TechNeed Challenge periodically highlights TechNeeds that individuals and their organization may be able to meet. A description of the required technology is provided, together with a desired timeframe, the field of use and intended application and the desired outcome. Among the customers that sponsor and use the website are large companies like 3M, AlliedSignal, The Boeing Company, The Dow Chemical Company, DuPont, P&G and other international companies such as Toyota Motors and Bayer.

     The book notes:

     Yet2.com
     
     To further its C&D strategy for patents and licensing, P&G has partnered with Yet2.com, another Internet marketplace for technology. Yet2.com was founded in 1999 by senior managers from Polaroid and Du Pont. Its founding sponsors included P&G, Bayer, Siemens, Dow Chemicals, Caterpillar, and Honeywell. Around 500 companies, including 3M, Microsoft, and Philips, use Yet2.com.

     Yet2.com helps 'seller' companies realize the value from their intellectual property and technology and 'buyer' companies find intellectual property and technology to enhance their resources or to fill gaps. It brokers existing technology and intellectual property. Typically, deals are made between large and small companies, whereby large companies sell technology they think has too small a potential market to interest them or buy technologies from smaller firms that do not have the resources to commercialize them. Yet2.com posts functional abstracts about the technology, which are written as plainly as possible and often speculate on applications of the technology that may not currently be on the market. Yet2.com postings include reference to groups of associated patents. Yet2.com charges a $5,000 commission for its introductions. It is already a significant marketplace, with over 800,000 users.

     P&G is an extensive user of Yet2.com. In one instance, Yet2.com marketed a technology from its beauty care division to one of its (unnamed) competitors, and the royalties from this were estimated to have paid for P&G's entire investment in Yet2.com

     The book notes:

     That's where entities like yet2.com come in. Yet2.com helps companies leverage and extract value from their intellectual property through both consulting and an online licensing marketplace, maximizing the return on companies' initial development expenses. (Obviously, their marketplace also assists companies with the inverse: sourcing IP.) Over the past 10 years, yet2.com has completed more than 100 licensing deals on four continents in fields as diverse as biotech and materials. Sony, Panasonic, DuPont, P&G, and a host of other well-known companies have succesfully worked with yet2.com.

     The book notes:

     In 1999 P&G joined a select group of other Fortune 100 companies as an initial investor in yet2.com. Based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, yet2.com provides intellectual property consultancy and licensing services to world-class international clients. yet2.com and its online marketplace promote technology licensing and transfer. Its clientele consists of over one-fourth of the Fortune 1000. yet2.com draws on its global network of technology leaders in thousands of companies across all industries, to establish productive dialogs quickly. In addition to being an investor, P&G has utilized yet2.com services for both bringing in and taking out technologies. This has resulted in profitable connections that otherwise might not have been made.

     The article notes:

     Why would a scion of one of America’s richest and best-known families even bother with starting a business-to-business electronic commerce company?

     “Pure frustration with the existing processes led me to start this company,” quips Ben DuPont, president and cofounder of Cambridge, Mass.-based Yet2.com, a startup that aims to become the clearing house for technology developed by individual inventors and corporations.

     Yet2.com opened for business today, after operating in stealth mode for more than 12 months. The company has raised almost $24 million in three rounds of financing from the likes of Venrock Capital, Proctor & Gamble pg , DuPont dd and Honeywell hon

     About 12 months ago, Ben DuPont, a 14-year veteran and business development executive with DuPont, was trying to get other corporations to license a hot new polymer technology developed by DuPont. “There was no easy way to do it,” he said.

  There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Yet2.com to pass Misplaced Pages:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".
