American Marconi Wireless News - New to The Street Acquires 15% Equity Stake in CommercialVille, Launches National Media Campaign Featuring Patent-Backed Platform

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / May 4, 2025 / New to The Street, the veteran financial media brand airing weekly on Bloomberg Television and Fox Business, announces a strategic 15% all-equity stake in CommercialVille, a pioneering, zip code-targeted video search engine platform. The deal includes full rights to CommercialVille's patent portfolio and supports a multi-platform media rollout to expand brand visibility, investor engagement, and advertiser onboarding.

On Friday evening, May 2, both CommercialVille's 30-second television ad and its NYSE interview were rebroadcast during prime time on Bloomberg Television, highlighting the company's platform innovation and commercial launch.

IP-Driven Deal: CommercialVille Patents Included

The equity agreement includes:

• Two fully granted U.S. utility patents (Nov. 2, 2020 & Jan. 7, 2021)

• One granted Canadian utility patent (Nov. 29, 2022)

• One patent pending in the People's Republic of China (PRC)

These patents secure CommercialVille's unique ability to deliver localized video search results entirely within its proprietary zip code gallery system, without external mapping or third-party engines. Advertisers can upload and serve video ads that are sorted and surfaced by location, offering a direct, non-disruptive connection to consumers actively searching.

"This partnership brings patented, scalable tech into our media ecosystem," said Vince Caruso, Founder and Managing Partner of New to The Street. "CommercialVille is redefining video search for small businesses-and we're proud to put them in front of investors and consumers through our broadcast platform."
