Larry Horn is CEO of MPEG LA, world leader in alternative technology licenses enabling users to acquire worldwide patent rights necessary for a technology standard or platform from multiple patent owners in a single transaction. Mr. Horn has directed MPEG LA’s licensing and business development since the company began operations in 1997.

Prior to joining MPEG LA, Larry was Head, Business Development, Marketing and Sales for Martek Biosciences Corporation (1994-97); President and Owner of HKM Corporation (1985-93); Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) where he also managed human resources, labor negotiations and conference services while the board searched for a new president (1978-85); Attorney with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Office of General Counsel (1975-78); with a Washington, DC law firm; and Adjunct Professor of Chinese Law, Georgetown University Law Center (1974-75).
An authority on one-stop technology platform patent licensing, Mr. Horn speaks at many conferences and trade shows worldwide and has published numerous articles.
Larry graduated from Yale University (BA, Chinese Studies) and Columbia University (J.D.) where he was awarded the law school’s highest honor for writing.
