On October 6th, reports surfaced indicating that on October 5th, Huawei had announced the establishment of a multi-year, comprehensive patent licensing agreement with Qualcomm. This agreement encompasses cross-licensing of patent portfolios between the two entities across various technological domains, including 5G, computing, artificial intelligence, and networking. Additionally, it involves Qualcomm acquiring certain U.S. patents from Huawei in the fields of computing, AI, networking, and more. Since both parties refrained from disclosing the financial terms of the agreement, the number of patents involved, or specific business arrangements, various speculations began to circulate in the market. These included rumors such as "Qualcomm will unilaterally pay fees to Huawei" and suggestions that the transaction involves "logical folded chip technology." On October 6th, Qualcomm clarified that the agreement reached with Huawei is a multi-year, extensive cross-licensing pact covering multiple technological fields, with the specific terms remaining confidential. However, the company refuted reports suggesting that Qualcomm is the net payer and emphasized that the agreement bears no relation to logical folded chip technology. Furthermore, Qualcomm confirmed that it has agreed to acquire some of Huawei's non-cellular communication U.S. patents.
