Kodak, the iconic name in the world of photography, has recently filed for bankruptcy protection.
Eastman Kodak Co. is now currently looking for buyers for some of its 1,100 digital patents. According to reports, the company had about $5.1 billion of assets and $6.75 billion of liabilities at the end of September.
