The establishment of the Hong Kong office marks a new phase in AIPT Group's service capabilities across Asia. Going forward, the Group will continue to integrate its own and partner resources in Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and other Asian markets. Through a single point of contact for global IP strategy, AIPT Group will assist businesses with multi-jurisdictional patent and trademark matters, technology transactions, licensing structures, and intellectual property risk management.

Hong Kong Office: A Platform Integrating Cross-Border IP and Capital

Hongkong AIPT Company Limited will serve as an important platform for integrating cross-border intellectual property and capital resources within AIPT Group's Asian network. Drawing on Hong Kong's international financial market, legal system, and commercial environment, the office will assist businesses with cross-border patent and trademark matters, technology transactions, and intangible asset management.

The Hong Kong office will focus on three principal areas:

• Cross-Border Coordination: Managing patent and trademark matters in Taiwan, Mainland China, and other jurisdictions while coordinating intellectual property service requirements across markets.
• Transaction Structuring: Supporting cross-border licensing, technology transaction structuring, and intangible asset valuation.
• Risk Management: Conducting intellectual property risk assessments and developing protection strategies before businesses enter overseas markets.

From Filing and Prosecution to Cross-Border IP Risk Advisory

AIPT Group founder Ivan Chen noted that intellectual property risk management is among the most frequently overlooked yet consequential risks in the course of business globalization. Many businesses do not confront patent infringement, trademark conflicts, or market-related rights disputes until after a product has been launched. By that stage, the cost of addressing the issue is often significantly higher, and the business may have already lost negotiating leverage.

AIPT Group will therefore expand its role beyond patent and trademark filing and prosecution to serve as a cross-border intellectual property risk advisor. The Group will assist clients in establishing more comprehensive protection frameworks and compliance strategies before product launches, technology collaborations, licensing transactions, and overseas market expansion.

Specialized Roles Across Taiwan, Japan, and Hong Kong Strengthen the Asian Service Network

Within its Asian network, AIPT Group will assign distinct roles based on the strengths of each market. Taiwan will remain the Group's operating headquarters and its base for intellectual property and legal services, supporting domestic and international IP strategies. AIPT Japan will focus on technology innovation and advanced manufacturing services, assisting businesses with intellectual property matters involving research and development, patent portfolio strategy, and advanced manufacturing. Hongkong AIPT Company Limited will focus on cross-border capital, technology transactions, licensing structures, and compliance coordination, serving as a key platform for businesses developing international IP portfolios.

Through collaboration among its Taiwan, Japan, and Hong Kong operations, together with service resources in Shenzhen and other Asian markets, AIPT Group will continue to support businesses with cross-border IP strategy, risk assessment, filing and prosecution management, and ongoing rights maintenance.

Launching Global Cross-Border IP Risk Advisory Services

As overseas expansion, technology collaboration, licensing transactions, and international supply-chain arrangements become increasingly common, AIPT Group will launch its Global Cross-Border IP Risk Advisory Services. These services will help businesses identify potential intellectual property risks and assess the value of their IP assets before entering overseas markets.

The services will comprise three core advisory modules:

• Risk Assessment: Analyzing technology-related infringement risks, trademark conflicts, market-entry priorities, and patent and trademark filing and protection strategies.
• Compliance Frameworks: Structuring technology licensing models, transaction terms, cross-border collaboration arrangements, and supply-chain IP risk controls.
• Value Assessment: Conducting valuations of patent portfolios, intangible assets, and technology transaction assets, together with reviews of the underlying investment rationale.
