Verizon: 1,110 patents
The global broadband and communication company which was founded as Bell Atlantic Corporation in 1983 now has around 1,110 patents.
Google: 1,124 patents.
Google is a big player, but still it has only a small number of patents compared to the rivals, which is one reason why it is acquiring Motorola. Google will get around 17,000 patents along with the acquisition.
Dell: 2,489 patents.
