In response to the recent surge in expectations and demand for our products, it has become increasingly imperative to protect and strengthen the rights associated with our trademarks and our outstanding technology.
To enhance our trademark rights and solidify the rights related to our various advanced technologies (such as patents), we have decided to seek advice and assistance from the following distinguished patent attorneys:
＜Attorney Yutaka Osawa＞
Mr. Osawa is a promising patent attorney in his 40s, a graduate of the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Tokyo, and he completed his Master’s degree in Applied Life Sciences at the Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences, University of Tokyo.
He has previously served as an Executive Director and Vice President of the Japan Patent Attorneys Association, and has been involved in various capacities in the Patent Committee and the Bio-Life Sciences Committee.
＜Attorney Kazuko Onuma＞
She offers invaluable insights from a female perspective. Currently, she serves as an Executive Director of the Japan Patent Attorneys Association, overseeing the Trademark Committee and the Copyright Committee.
Mr. Osawa and Ms. Onuma will be leading our efforts to reinforce the rights related to trademarks and technology. In addition to their expertise, we will also be supported by our company’s legal advisor, the renowned intellectual property attorney, Mr. Takahiko Iwatani, previously from Sony’s Legal and Intellectual Property Division. Furthermore, we will receive counsel from the esteemed professionals at TMI Associates, our legal advisory firm, to safeguard and strengthen our technological capabilities and the rights to our new products.
