Civolution Acquires Watermarking Business from Thomson
Civolution announced on Tuesday that it is acquiring the digital watermarking business from Thomson. Terms were undisclosed.

This move represents further consolidation in the watermarking market, following Dolby’s shutdown of its Cinea video watermarking division last year. Civolution itself spun out of Philips Electronics and acquired Teletrax, the video broadcast monitoring business that uses Civolution’s technology, late last year.

With this action, the only major players left in watermarking are Civolution and the Korean vendor MarkAny. Apart from those two, there are a few players in niche markets, such as Verimatrix (IPTV/digital pay TV), Verance (Blu-ray audio), and USA Video Interactive (Internet video delivery). http://copyrightandtechnology.com

Digimarc Corporation (NASDAQ: DMRC) recently announced that the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reports the Company is ranked 27th in its list of the Top 50 Innovative Companies in Information Technology as published by The Patent Board’s Patent Scorecard. The Patent Board (http://www.patentboard.com/) has developed more than 50 indicators that track global patent activity relating to companies' innovation, technology and science strengths, and provides this analysis for the WSJ.
