Our Strengths
Comprehensive Capabilities Across the IP Lifecycle
(Creation, Protection, and Utilization)
Based on the intellectual property lifecycle—creation (discovery, research, and evaluation), protection (rights acquisition, management, and monitoring), and utilization (monetization and infringement countermeasures)—we provide one-stop support covering everything from searches, filings, and office action responses to know-how development, IP valuation, licensing, commercialization, and infringement response.
Diverse and Highly Experienced Professionals with Advanced Technical Expertise
Our team includes patent attorneys from multiple technical fields, former officials from relevant government ministries, former corporate and financial professionals, attorneys-at-law,
and intellectual property analysts.
This broad range of expertise enables us to deliver advanced strategic planning and effective practical execution.
IP Due Diligence® and IP Landscape®
Drawing on extensive expertise in intellectual property due diligence, we go beyond merely identifying issues to propose concrete solutions and assess their feasibility.
Furthermore, by leveraging our proprietary IP Landscape® methodology, we go beyond providing high-level IP analysis for management and business decision-making, maximize the value of our clients’ intellectual assets and management resources, and co-create corporate value.
