Situations of Patent Applications among 5 countries (2007)
Overseas applications have value
All Copyrights Researved©2009 Yoshitoshi Tanaka
MOT, Graduate School of Technology Management
Why so many patents filed by companies?
First-file system (but it’s not only for Japanese. In most of
countries.)
Competition is high in the Japanese market?
Customers are the first! “Customer first principle”
Very strong and detailed Needs from market/consumers
High score on Avoid uncertainty (Geert Hofstede)
Norm principle (ex. 3 patent applications every year)
Long history of IP awareness activities (JIII over 100 years
history)
Existence of Utility Model Registration System (200,000 in 1985)
History to have licensing in from foreign companies (especially
1950’s)
Small improvement ideas filed with different applications
Different Protection approach (patent net, etc)
Patents as a tool for business alliance (ex. Cross licensing)

enforcement. Otherwise,
the patent is not efficient
for enforcement.
Efficiency for enforcement
depends on Patent Claims.
