BOE will file a review with the ITC and resolutely counter the preliminary ruling of the Section 337 investigation into trade secrets by the U.S. International Trade Commission
In response to the preliminary ruling of the administrative judge of the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) on the 337 investigation of trade secrets, BOE will file a review with the ITC. At the same time, BOE has also filed a patent lawsuit against Samsung Display in the United States to counter Samsung's recent continuous suppression and actively safeguard BOE's rights and interests. Recently, Samsung Display filed a lawsuit against China's BOE for infringement of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) trade secrets with the U.S. International Trade Commission. The ITC's preliminary ruling decided to recognize that BOE infringed Samsung Display's trade secrets and took import ban measures. In response to Samsung's continuous escalation of disputes in the past two years, BOE has also taken corresponding countermeasures, including filing multiple patent infringement lawsuits against Samsung in courts in China and the United States. According to industry insiders, in November 2024, the Chongqing No. 1 Intermediate People's Court of China has made a first-instance judgment, determining that Samsung Display's OLED panel infringed BOE's patent rights.
