The company, which became General Patent Corporation International, was founded by Alexander Poltorak in 1987 as Poltorak Associates Inc., which engaged in patent licensing and technology transfer. It was incorporated in 1989 as General Patent Corporation (... known as GPC), which became a full service intellectual property management firm. GPC was selected by Marketing Computers Magazine as one of “Nine for the Nineties” – one of nine most promising technology companies for the 90s[6]. The contingency IP enforcement business was spun off as a separate company, General Patent Corporation International in 1996. Since 1996, GPCI has been actively licensing and enforcing a portfolio of “smart connector” patents[7]. In 1997, GPCI filed two patent infringement suits against IBM and U.S. Robotics[8] in the Southern District of New York and Against Hayes and seven modem manufacturers in the Central District of California.
