The two companies signed a multi-year global patent cross-licensing agreement, which granted HP the right to use certain Huawei Wi-fi patents on its PCs for a fee.
“This agreement is a strong testament to Huawei’s persistent independent innovation in cutting-edge fields in information and communications technology,” Alan Fan, Huawei’s chief intellectual property officer, said in a statement.
“Through patent licensing, Huawei shares its innovation with the industry, particularly in the area of standardised technologies.”
The agreement came after Huawei filed a lawsuit against HP in 2025 over Wi-fi 6 patents, but the disputes were resolved in November last year after the American PC maker became a licensee of the patent pool of Italian intellectual property management firm Sisvel, gaining access to some of the contested patents.
The latest cross-licensing agreement further expanded the cooperation between Huawei and HP on patent licensing.
