Exhibit 99.1

     CTT CLIENTS' AWARD OF OVER $54 MILLION IN MATERNA LITIGATION
            AGAINST WYETH AFFIRMED BY FEDERAL CIRCUIT COURT

Fairfield, CT (September 4, 2003):  Competitive Technologies, Inc.
(AMEX: CTT) announced that the US Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit (CAFC) has affirmed the August 13, 2002 decision of US Senior
District Court Judge John Kane of the US District Court for the
District of Colorado for an approximate $54 million patent infringement
judgment for fraud and unjust enrichment against Wyeth's (NYSE: WYE)
American Cyanamid Co. unit, and in favor of CTT's client, the
University of Colorado.  CTT expects to receive approximately $4.7
million of the net proceeds recovered from Wyeth in this $54 million
award.

The litigation involves a prenatal vitamin supplement marketed by
American Cyanamid under the Materna(TM) name.  A preliminary opinion
issued in July 2000 found that Drs. Robert H. Allen and Paul A.
Seligman, CTT's clients at the University of Colorado are the sole
inventors of the improved formulation of the prenatal vitamin
supplement, and that American Cyanamid had been unjustly enriched.  The
second opinion, issued in August 2002 and now affirmed by the CAFC,
reiterated that opinion.

John B. Nano, President and CEO of CTT said, 'We applaud the CAFC
decision to affirm the District Court's findings in favor of our
clients and CTT, finally closing a litigation which began in 1993 for
product sales between 1984 and 1994.'
