Keizai SV Leveraging IP in a Global & AI-Driven World 2025-10-15

Join us for an engaging session on the fundamentals and evolving role of Intellectual Property (IP) in today’s fast-changing business and technology landscape. We’ll begin with an overview of key IP concepts—patents, designs, trademarks, and copyrights—and how they support business growth.

The panel will then dive into strategies for managing IP throughout the product lifecycle to protect innovations and expand business opportunities. Going beyond the basics, panelists will highlight how IP is adapting to rapid technological change, particularly AI and other emerging innovations.

Through case studies and real-world experiences, seasoned professionals will provide practical insights into how IP can drive growth, strengthen competitive advantage, and unlock global opportunities. This interactive session is designed for business leaders—whether startups or large corporations—expanding into the US or Japan, and for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of IP.
