How do I contact Sony with new product they might be interested in incorporating into their products

Question

One of our strategic business partners has invented a circuit chip. It will eliminate the standby power consumption in all electronics equipment. Please note - NOT REDUCE standby power,  ELIMINATE standby power. This will work on all electronics that have vampire or standby power. TV, DVR, DVD, microwave ovens, X-box, etc. Also chargers of all kinds for power tools, personal hygiene products, cell phones, etc.
On Jan. 12th of last year, the California Energy Commission passed the first state mandated efficiency standard targeting vampire charging systems. The new standards begin taking effect Feb. 1st, 2013 for chargers with consumer goods, Jan. 1st, 2014 for industrial chargers, and Jan.1st, 2017 for commercial equipment chargers. It sounds like this mandate will be updated to include more products soon.
The U.S. Dept. of Energy is paying very close attention to this and encouraging all other states to do so as well. In addition (because gov’ts across the globe are stretched very thin), there is chatter among several global energy commissions to implement new international standards for all vampire energy consuming goods in the near future.
As of September 1, average electricity consumption of Energy Star qualified products are to drop to 97 kilowatt hours a year from about 138, and by the middle of 2013, they must decrease to 29 kilowatt hours per year.
To combat the problem of phantom load consumption (aka standby power), our clients have invented a unique power circuit which uses zero standby power. They are currently in the initial process of designing the circuit into chip form and for a limited time they are strategically seeking a select handful of companies interested in providing test verification assistance. Currently they are working with eSilicon in Carlsbad, CA to develop the actual chip.
This should be a perfect fit for Sony products but I am not sure who to contact. Any ideas/contact information would be appreciated.
