		Intellectual Ventures was created to spur the kind of long-term basic research projects that Myhrvold believes are being neglected in corporate research labs, which have moved toward customer-driven applied research.
		The firm's game plan is still in its early stages, its principals remain secretive about their inventions-in-progress, and Intellectual Ventures only recently was issued its first patent, because of a wait of up to three years in securing patents from the US Patent and Trademark Office.
		Intellectual Ventures has been filing about 25 applications a month and has some 400 patents pending in fields like computer hardware and software, user-interface design, semiconductors, medical devices, nanotechnology, and advanced particle physics.
