Israeli Architect Eli Attia To Sue Google Over Construction Invention

December 15, 2014 | The Israeli architect Eli Attia and Max Sound filed a law suit with the Superior Court of California against Google and its co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page. Charges are also being filed against Flux Factory, a group of senior Google executives. According to the law suit, Google stole Attia’s invention, a technology that shortens and makes cheaper the design and construction process for large, high-rise buildings.

Eli Attia is one of the leading high-rise building designers in the world, designing prominent buildings in the US and the Azrieli Towers in Israel.
