Datavault AI Inc. Announces a $10M Worldwide Exclusive License Agreement with Scilex Holding Company for Tokenization and Monetization of Real-World Assets (RWA) in Genomic, DNA Data, Diagnostics, Therapeutics, Genetic, and Drug Information

 

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- Datavault AI Inc. (“Datavault AI” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: DVLT), a leader in AI-driven blockchain solutions focusing on data monetization, asset tokenization, and secure digital marketplaces, today announced that it has granted a worldwide exclusive license, with the right to sublicense, to Scilex Holding Company (Nasdaq: SCLX), for Datavault AI’s proprietary AI-driven technology. This license is tailored for use within the biotech and biopharma industry, enabling Scilex to create and operate a Biotech Exchange platform. By leveraging Datavault AI's advanced data platforms, Scilex can facilitate secure tokenization, trading, and monetization of biotech assets, including genomic and DNA data, diagnostic and therapeutic products, genetic information, and drug data. This agreement represents a major advancement in commercializing biotech innovations and builds directly on Datavault AI's established expertise in high-performance computing and data-driven solutions.

Datavault AI believes this technology has the potential to extend into a Pharmaceutical Exchange platform, which could transform the pharmaceutical industry by enabling efficient, secure asset management and monetization.

Datavault AI estimates an opportunity to tokenize approximately $2.0 trillion in pharmaceutical drug sales and diagnostic sales.1 The Company also sees tokenization on such exchange platforms as an alternative for companies to secure non-dilutive funding for developing and commercializing diagnostic and therapeutic products.

This licensing agreement highlights Datavault AI's robust intellectual property portfolio, including the key pending patent for "Platform and Method for Tokenizing DNA Data" (U.S. Patent Application No. 17/941,623), which establishes a secure framework for tokenizing and exchanging sensitive genetic information. The technology is bolstered by a comprehensive suite of issued and pending patents that power the Biotech Exchange, such as:

  • Issued: "Platform for Management of User Data" (U.S. Patent Nos. 11,593,515; 11,960,622; 12,100,025) and continuations, supporting secure data handling and monetization.
  • Issued: "Portfolio Driven Targeted Advertising Network, System, and Method" (U.S. Patent No. 11,315,150), facilitating data-driven targeting within exchange ecosystems.
  • Pending: "System and Method for Tokenized Minting, Authentication, and Utilization of Assets" (U.S. Patent Application No. 17/842,139), enabling biotech asset tokenization.
  • Pending: "Platform and Method for Tokenization of Corporate Data" (U.S. Patent Application No. 17/941,550), adaptable to biotech datasets.
  • Pending: "System and Method for Tokenized Licensing of Content" (U.S. Patent Application No. 17/842,328), for biotech IP licensing.
  • Pending: "System and Method for Tokenized Affiliate Marketing" (U.S. Patent Application No. 17/842,265), to foster biotech partnerships.
  • Pending: "System and Method for Funding a Virtual Location" (U.S. Patent Application No. 17/842,220), applicable to virtual biotech marketplaces.
  • Pending: "System and Method for Tokenized Event Management" (U.S. Patent Application No. 19/248,284), for biotech events and collaborations.
  • Pending: "System and Method for Registering Claims of Ownership Rights" (U.S. Patent Application No. 18/412,128), ensuring verifiable ownership in data trades.

These innovations collectively form the backbone of a secure, efficient Biotech Exchange, enabling tokenization, valuation, and trading of biotech data assets while upholding compliance and privacy.

Building on Datavault AI's prior collaborations with Brookhaven National Laboratory, as announced in our June 17, 2025, press release, where we deployed AI-driven supercomputing for biofuel research to enhance fatty acid metabolism efficiency in Brassica napus (canola) using high-performance computational modeling, this license extends our proven AI and data monetization technologies into broader biotech applications. This follows our Sept. 16, 2024, announcement highlighting the Bioenergy Digital Twins Platform at the New York State Digital Summit, emphasizing real-time data synchronization and machine learning integration for bioenergy advancements.

Under the terms of the agreement, Datavault AI will receive a nonrefundable upfront license fee in four equal installments of $2.5 million each, payable by Scilex on or before December 31, 2025, March 31, 2026, June 30, 2026, and Sept. 30, 2026. Additionally, Datavault AI is eligible for sales milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $2.55 billion upon Scilex achieving certain sales milestones.
