We are considering expanding into China. How should we develop our IP in terms of export security?

In order to protect your intellectual property abroad, it is generally considered to obtain a patent in Japan and then file an international application or PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty), but there are differences in security export control methods and procedures among countries and regions, and the cost, schedule, and other factors to consider also depend on the content of the technology and industry sector. The cost, schedule, and other factors to consider will vary depending on the nature of the technology and the industry sector. We can introduce you to specialists who have experience in IP strategy, patent acquisition, and IP management. We would be happy to consider introducing you to an appropriate specialist according to what you have in mind. Please let us know what you have in mind.
