New Zealander Juliette Harrington has sold her United States patent for one-stop internet shopping for $6.55 million at a London auction of intellectual property.
The patent, titled ‘Methods for internet shopping with a one-stop shopping cart’ is for technology that allows a shopper to search for goods in the databases of several shops through one website.
Ms Harrington - a mother-of-three - was living at Lyttelton when she registered the patent early in 1997.
