Defendant
1 case as defendant.
Ezurio LLC (trading as Ezurio; formerly Laird Connectivity and Boundary Devices) is a privately held wireless-connectivity and embedded-compute manufacturer. It rebranded from Laird Connectivity in March 2024. Its U.S. headquarters moved to Akron, Ohio in September 2026; it also has roots in the UK (Laird Connectivity's predecessor, EZURiO Ltd., was acquired by Laird Technologies in 2008). Ownership is private-equity backed: Audax Private Equity invested in Laird Connectivity in 2022, and the business sits within the Laird group split under Advent International, which acquired Laird in 2018. No ticker and no publicly filed revenue. Size estimates vary widely across third-party databases (PitchBook lists roughly 150; other aggregators cite 1,000–2,000), so headcount cannot be verified; a 2023 Great Place to Work listing reported ~204 U.S.-based employees.
Products / operations. Ezurio is an operating company, not an NPE. It designs and manufactures RF/wireless modules (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth LE, 802.15.4, sub-GHz, UWB), system-on-modules and computer-on-modules, single board computers, internal antennas, IoT sensors and gateways, and provides custom design, certification, and lifecycle-support services. End markets include industrial automation, medical, cold-chain monitoring, defense, gaming, and commercial IoT. Supplier partnerships have included Texas Instruments, NXP, Nordic Semiconductor, and MediaTek.
Litigation posture. The tracked data shows 0 cases as plaintiff and 1 as defendant — the profile of an operating company being sued, not an asserter. Its sole tracked matter is Fleet Connect Solutions LLC v. Ezurio LLC (C.D. Cal., filed 2025-01-12, now closed). There is no evidence of Ezurio asserting patents itself.
Context. Fleet Connect Solutions is a non-practicing entity owned and controlled by Empire IP LLC, per court filings in related declaratory-judgment actions, and has filed dozens of suits asserting acquired wireless/telematics patents against downstream technology users. Fleet Connect's campaign also targeted Platform Science, C.R. England, Schneider, and Werner in C.D. Cal. and Texas districts — the same wireless-communications portfolio family reflected in the Ezurio matter. No merits findings on the Ezurio case are known.
