LONDON, UK AND DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / April 16, 2026 / Global Intellectual Property industry trade publication IAM (Intellectual Asset Management) has released its 2026 IAM Market Makers of the Year listing, naming Dominion Harbor Group CEO David Pridham in the top 20 rankings at #18 spot of the world's top 40 patent dealmakers as selected by the publication's editorial team.

Mr. Pridham was cited by IAM's 2026 Market Makers of the Year for having "...expanded the firm's portfolio significantly in 2025 by acquiring 2,500 patents from Dolby. Dominion operates Edison Innovations, which includes the red phosphor assets transferred as part of the Dolby-GE Licensing acquisition, and uses Edison as a vehicle to license these technologies into multiple markets. Pridham also led acquisitions of large portfolios from Ofinno, Shanghai Langbo Communication Technology and Vulcan Gaming, creating new subsidiaries to launch licensing programmes targeting wireless communications, automotive V2X systems, and gaming technologies worldwide...".

The IAM Market Makers of the Year annual listing recognizes 40 Intellectual Property industry dealmakers and decision-makers as determined by the publication's editorial team. According to the trade magazine, over the past year, those featured in the Market Makers listing have executed major asset transactions, driven innovation in the dealmaking space and, ultimately, created significant value from IP.

"Those recognized are true leaders in the field - individuals who craft sophisticated strategies in an increasingly complex licensing environment, oversee high-stakes negotiations and secure impactful deals. While there are many others whose achievements merit recognition, there is little doubt that the individuals on this list represent the very top tier of the profession," as stated by IAM.

Other executives cited within the Top 20 include Peter Moller, Access Advance; Andy Sherman, Dolby; Patrik Hammarén, Nokia; Christina Petersson - Ericsson; and Liren Chen - InterDigital.

"Being recognized by IAM's Market Makers of the Year is a significant honor and it's one that I share with our company's entire management and staff, each of whom play an important role in our licensing achievements," said Mr. Pridham.
