Esmael Dinan (born 1971) is an Iranian-American prolific inventor and entrepreneur in the fields of information technology and communication networks.[1] He is one of the top ten most prolific inventors in the US and one of the top 14 in the world with over 1546 issued US patents as of September 16, 2024. He was awarded 244 US patents in 2022 and 305 US patents in 2023.[2][3] He is the founder and CTO of Ofinno, LLC - a research lab in Northern Virginia.[1][4][5][6]
Dinan received his PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from George Mason University, Fairfax, VA, in 2001.[1]
Dr. Dinan has more than twenty years of research and development experience with tech firms such as WorldCom, Bechtel Communications, Sprint, and Clearwire.[5] He led research and development projects in areas of wireless and wireline networking technologies that included LTE-Advanced, Evolved Packet Core, 5G New Radio, 5G Core Networks, and Wi-Fi technologies.[6]
Working as a researcher and inventor for over twenty years, Esmael saw a consistent gap between engineers and patent attorneys throughout the industry, prompting the creation of Ofinno and its one-of-a-kind approach.[7]In a 2023 episode of the Clause 8 Podcast, Dr. Dinan touched on his inspiration for this unique model:
"The inventors had no clue about what a patent is, what is the patent process, why do they invent, what is really a good patent, what is a bad patent....[and] on the other hand, the patent attorneys that I worked with had little appreciation about the details of the technology.....I felt like the system is broken and inefficient, especially for getting standard essential patents. You have to have an optimized process from beginning to end, and that didn't exist in a company that I worked for."[8]
Over the last 13 years, Dr. Dinan has led Ofinno to establish strong relationships with renowned tech giants including Comcast, Samsung, Huawei, and Honda.[8]
In 2023, Esmael transitioned his role as CEO to Kavon Nasabzadeh and took on the role of Chief Technology Officer, allowing him to focus on his "true passion of research and innovation."[9]
