About Us

1. Our Vision


In terms of “Intellectual Properties(IP) Management”, we will do our best to support you who are trying various businesses to save as many patients as possible.

What is “IP Management”?

“IP Management” is a management approach that strengthens your competing power through intellectual property (inventions, designs, brands, data, and know-how).
In the age when the business environment is drastically changing, you can enhance “Earning power and Profit-making ability” by managing intellectual property, which is an important business asset.

For example, by implementing IP management,
 1)Prevention of imitation by other companies (“Control”)
 2)Obtains exclusive rights to your products and services (“Protection”)
 3)Improvement of the value of the company’s assets (“Asset”), and
 4)Searching for future product concepts and new businesses (“Marketing”)
are enabled.
As a result of this, you can invest the profits obtained in return for the improvement of competing power, into your internal systems such as your human resource development, data maintenance and so on.
Furthermore, by repeating the cycle of creating new intellectual assets from your human resources, you can more and more enhance our “Earning and Profit-making power”.
