We negotiate in good faith towards building
appropriate licensing relationships
so that underutilized patents
with high potential can be brought to light.
We uncover IP that has high potential value
yet is not being fully utilized and aim for
them to be optimally leveraged, in line
with each company’s own business perspective,
in ways only IP Bridge can do.
We believe in contributing to the development of open innovation by negotiating in good
faith to build appropriate licensing relationships.
Since our establishment, we have a long record of successful global licensing achievements with a wide variety of companies with our fair negotiation attitude and expertise. To date, we have concluded licensing agreements with world-class large companies in South Korea, Singapore, the U.S., the U.K., and other countries around the world.
Through conclusion of licensing agreements, we have achieved to generate a return on IP investment for our fund investors, which is rare in Japan. We have also contributed to returning profits to the company of the invented patented technology, thereby increasing their corporate values. We have continued to work diligently since establishing our fund, and the number of pending actions against us as the plaintiff has reached double digits (as of March 2021). To date, our posture in negation has been evaluated highly as we have demonstrated by winning the decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals in our favor.
In addition to these activities, we have strategically participated in patent pools not only for the benefit of our firm but also for the interests of our society. We have also kept our solid presence in the IP industry by
continuously serving as the country host of IPBC JAPAN since its inception, where not only IP executives and professionals gather from home and abroad, but critical IP business, deal-making, and strategies are discussed.
