Importance of IP & Patent Research in Global Expansion

Enhancing Market Competitiveness

Entering new markets without a full understanding of local language, culture, and legal regulations increases the risk of rights infringement and unauthorized use, while innovative technologies may go unrecognized. Protecting intellectual property ensures stronger competitiveness in the global business arena.

Enhancing Corporate Value Abroad

Strategically disclosing patent and IP information can attract investor attention and boost corporate value. IP information serves as a key indicator of credibility and future growth potential in the global marketplace.

AtGlobal’s Comprehensive Strategic Support

We obtain competitor products required for infringement lawsuits or licensing negotiations. With staff based in 60 countries and regions, AtGlobal can safely and promptly secure products available in local markets.
