AIPT Group Shortlisted for Taiwan Trademark Prosecution at the 2026 Asia IP Awards

AIPT Group has been named to the shortlist for Taiwan Trademark Prosecution at the 2026 Asia IP Awards. Announced by intellectual property publication Asia IP, the shortlist places AIPT Group alongside several leading IP firms in Taiwan. Its inclusion recognizes the Group's work in trademark filing, portfolio planning, and brand protection.

The Asia IP Awards recognize intellectual property practices across the Asia-Pacific region. Categories cover patent and trademark prosecution, copyright, IP litigation, and portfolio management, with awards presented by jurisdiction.

AIPT Group Named to Taiwan Trademark Prosecution Shortlist

Asia IP published the 2026 shortlist on September 11, 2026. AIPT Group was selected in the Taiwan Trademark Prosecution category, marking an important recognition of its work in trademark applications, portfolio strategy, and related client services in Taiwan.

For businesses operating across borders, trademark protection now goes well beyond registering a mark in a single market. It requires coordinated filing strategies, ongoing portfolio management, and early assessment of legal and commercial risks.

Supporting Cross-Border Brand Protection

“Being shortlisted for the Asia IP Awards is a welcome acknowledgment of our team's years of work in intellectual property services,” said AIPT Group Chairman Ivan Chen. “We are particularly grateful to our clients for their continued trust and support. IP services today are about more than securing rights. They also need to support a company's international expansion, brand strategy, and growth across markets.”

AIPT Group plans to expand coordination across its service network in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, and other international markets. This will help clients put appropriate protection in place before launching products, expanding their brands, or entering new markets.

From IP Filings to Corporate IP Management

AIPT Group provides patent, trademark, and other intellectual property services. Its work has expanded beyond applications and registrations to include cross-border portfolio planning, corporate IP management, and advice on intangible assets. The aim is to help clients manage intellectual property as a business asset and create value from it.

The Group's work is centered on three key areas:

• Global Portfolio Strategy: Coordinating patent and trademark filings across jurisdictions in line with each client's products, target markets, and business plans.
• Brand Management: Identifying trademark risks, maintaining registrations, and protecting brands in overseas markets.
• IP Value Creation: Aligning intellectual property management with broader business and intangible asset strategies to strengthen the commercial value of technologies and brands.

Expanding the Group's Regional and International Network

As more businesses expand internationally, AIPT Group is building closer coordination among its teams and professional partners in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, and other markets. This network helps clients navigate local filing requirements, procedures, and protection strategies across different jurisdictions.

• Taiwan: The Group's main operating base, supporting domestic and international patent and trademark matters.
• Hong Kong: A regional connection point for cross-border business, brand expansion, and international market entry.
• Japan: Local market knowledge and professional support for companies seeking to protect their intellectual property in Japan.
• International Network: Overseas partners supporting multi-jurisdictional filings, portfolio management, and risk assessment.

Winners to Be Announced in Hong Kong on November 28

Voting by in-house counsel for the 2026 Asia IP Awards is now underway. The winners will be announced at a gala dinner in Hong Kong on November 28, 2026.

AIPT Group said that being shortlisted represents an important milestone regardless of the final outcome. Building on its base in Taiwan, the Group will further develop its intellectual property service network across Asia and other international markets, helping clients strengthen the protection and commercial management of their intellectual property.
