Samsung eyes InterDigital patent portfolio for mobile technology

Summary: The race is on as several Silicon Valley giants race to buy up more patents for mobile technology.

Samsung is reportedly interested in acquiring InterDigital Inc.'s patent portfolio, which retains a catalog of patents related to mobile technologies used to transfer information.

However, Samsung isn't the only one interested in making this deal. Both Apple and Google are potential bidders as well.

Lee Seung Woo, a Seoul-based analyst at Shinyoung Securities Co., told Bloomberg about just how serious this acquisition could be.
