Intel Corporation

Intel Corporation, founded in 1968, is a publicly traded multinational technology company headquartered in Santa Clara, California. The company, whose name is a portmanteau of "integrated electronics," trades on the Nasdaq stock exchange under the ticker symbol INTC. For the full year 2025, Intel reported revenue of $52.9 billion. As of fiscal year 2025, the company employed approximately 85,100 people.

Intel is a leading operating company in the semiconductor industry, primarily known for designing and manufacturing microprocessors based on the x86 architecture, which are central components in most personal computers (PCs) and data center servers. The company's major product lines include Core processors for PCs, Xeon processors for servers, and Atom processors for low-power applications. Intel also produces a wide range of other semiconductor products, such as chipsets, network interface controllers, flash memory, graphics processing units (GPUs), and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). The company is increasingly focused on developing technologies for artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, and the Internet of Things (IoT).

Based on the provided data, Intel's patent litigation posture is that of an operating company defending its technology against infringement claims. The company is listed as a defendant in one tracked case and has not been a plaintiff. This defensive role is typical for a large technology manufacturer that is a frequent target for patent assertion entities.

The single tracked case, Greenthread, LLC v. Intel Corporation et al., was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas on January 27, 2022. The plaintiff, Greenthread, LLC, is a Texas-based entity that has filed multiple lawsuits against various technology companies asserting a portfolio of patents related to semiconductor devices with graded dopant regions. This pattern of litigation suggests that Greenthread, LLC is a non-practicing entity (NPE). The case against Intel involves allegations that certain Intel Core processors infringe on these patents.
