Company profile

I'll research this company before writing the profile.

Mianyang BOE Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 绵阳京东方光电科技有限公司; short name "BOEMY") is a Chinese display-panel manufacturer headquartered at No. 198, Middle Section of Kefa Avenue, High-Tech Zone, Mianyang, Sichuan. The entity was registered on December 20, 2016, with registered capital of RMB 26 billion. It is not itself listed; it is a subsidiary/affiliate of BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd. (SZSE: 000725), the Beijing-based display group that reported 2024 operating revenue of RMB 198.4 billion and roughly 110,000 employees.

Operations. Mianyang BOE operates BOE Group's second Generation 6 flexible AMOLED production line, a project with announced total investment of about RMB 46.5 billion and planned capacity of 48,000 glass substrates per month. It produces flexible AMOLED display panels and modules for smartphones, foldable tablets and notebooks, wearables and automotive applications, and has added OLED advanced-module lines. It is an operating manufacturer, not a non-practicing entity, and holds a display-technology patent portfolio (roughly 150 IP records in public IP databases).

Litigation posture. The single tracked matter is Mianyang BOE Optoelectronics et al. v. Samsung Display Co., Ltd., filed 2024-03-06 at the PTAB — giving 1 plaintiff-side case and 0 defendant-side cases in the data. That count reflects PTAB petitions, where the database records the petitioner as plaintiff. The same entity appears as a respondent/defendant in related Samsung Display proceedings that the structured data does not capture, including ITC investigation 337-TA-1351 and E.D. Tex. case 2:23-cv-00309. It is therefore an active two-way litigant and a direct competitor of Samsung Display in OLED panels, not an NPE.

Notable cases. In IPR2024-00620, Mianyang BOE joined Wuhan China Star, Tianma Microelectronics and Visionox as co-petitioners challenging Samsung Display's U.S. Patent 9,330,593; the Board instituted review in September 2024. In IPR2023-00941, also against Samsung Display, the Board issued a December 2024 final written decision determining no challenged claim unpatentable.
