Rossi is a co-founder of Leonardo Corp, a business based in
the US.
Rossi is a co-founder of a spin-off known as Leonardo Corporation of New
Hampshire. There is an older company known as Leonardo Technologies (or LTI)
of Bannock, Ohio. To confuse matters even more, there is an unrelated
company known as LTI Power in Ohio.
The principals of AmpEnergo and Leonardo of Ohio are the same people. This
is most of the confusion. All of these companies are interlocking to some
degree. Leonardo, or the principals, have funded Rossi to some degree since
1993 when he was making TEGs.
* Leonardo Corp. has licensed designs for one or more E-Cat models to
AmpEnergo, a small US company, to manufacture.
My understanding is that Rossi’s patent application(s) is/was owned by his
wife, so it is unclear exactly what was licensed, or by whom. But AmpEnergo
has claimed to own the exclusive rights to the E-Cat in the USA, and this
priority position derives from LTI (or its Principals) having funded Rossi
for two decades. Rossi has confirmed this also. Rossi has called AmpEnergo a
“large company” (in 2011) apparently confusing it with LTI, which itself is
not exactly huge. A patent was approved by the Italian Patent and Trademark
Office, valid only in Italy. The Italian licensee is a company called
Prometeon.
Need I remind everyone that AR is known to exaggerate. “Big” is a relative
term.
* AmpEnergo has contracted manufacturing to another, possibly large
business, presumably one it can trust to keep the designs secret.
Not exactly. AmpEnergo contracted to provide E-Cat units for a heating
application to a “big” manufacture (aka the large customer), but where the
devices were to be constructed was not disclosed… except to say that it was
not by Rossi and was contracted by AmpEnergo. It is safe to assume that a
prime concern in having these built independently from Rossi was to prove
the design was real and at the same time to keep the design secret, since US
patent coverage is doubtful. Thus the “large customer” would not be involved
in any transaction to build them, for the obvious reasons.
* This large business may or may not be one of the large customers.
The large (big) manufacturer and large customer are one and the same. There
could be other customers by now, depending on how successful the device has
performed in the past couple of months. But as far as anyone knows,
AmpEnergo is the sole licensee. They could chose to sell this license, or
sub-license it to many, but AFAIK there is no indication of this having
happened yet.
The details are easy to mix up. I wish there were a wiki
page up somewhere with links to source documents. ;)
There is a rather poor Wiki page, edited by the same crew who keep LENR
under their thumb.
