R2 Semiconductor Triumphant Over Intel: Impact on Server Business

California-based firm R2 Semiconductor has won a legal battle against Intel over patent infringement in a German court. The ruling bans Intel and its customers from selling, importing, or manufacturing the infringing chips in Germany. This could significantly impact Intel's operations and investments in Germany, as the ban is expected to remain in effect until at least 2025. Intel is challenging the ruling and the patent's validity in the German Patent Court. However, initial opinions suggest that the patent is valid.
