And while Portland is by no means a backwater, it’s still not a major tech or immersive content hub like LA or San Francisco either. Microsoft has this great patent portfolio and it would be great to take that amazing secret sauce of the HoloLens and license it out to their existing OEM partners like Dell or Samsung.”.
