BENEFITS:

Some of the Key Benefits associated with these patents is the value adding of environments such as sporting environments or even Wildlife preserves by attracting new or more involved interest in viewing that environment or an aspect of that environment when it is converted into this type of game of chance.

This type of game of chance would be popular with casinos, broadcasters, companies with entertainment property portfolios as well as sporting leagues, lottery corporations, gaming and wagering companies, and casino slot machine and electronic game machine companies.

The benefit would be that they could attract new or more involved interest from their existing clientele and/or attract a new clientele altogether.

The target market would be gamblers or people that like to play games of chance for fun or for money.





Financial information

The price would depend on what the potential buyer and/or licensee would want to do. I have other proprietary rights for this IP that extends past just patents such as copyright and trademarks that would need to be discussed.

I also have a granted patent for New Zealand and a patent pending for Canada that cover the same IP.

Further to this I have registered with the US copyright office an entertainment property and format for forming a governing body or federation like FIFA or a Chess Federation for this type of Gaming which is called Matrix GamingTM to which I have registered a Trademark.

I have further ambitions for Matrix Gaming that go past the life of these patents and any potential buyer or licensee would be invited to take part in a dialogue with regards to that.

I would be looking for a buyer or buyers that may be interested in a holistic approach to the IP by possibly helping to set up this worldwide governing body or federation for this type of gaming.

Not only do I believe that a larger more connected organization other than just myself will be able to exploit what I have in these granted patents better than I can, but they could also profit by helping to look after the proliferation and governing of this type of game if they chose to become involved in a governing body organization.
