Secure Strong Patents in Japan
for Your Bio & AI Innovations
Direct, English-language patent support from a Japanese patent attorney who understands both cutting-edge biotechnology and AI/software inventions — and the business strategy behind them.
Why Protect Your Invention in Japan?
Japan is one of the world’s largest and most sophisticated patent markets. For companies and universities in the AI-driven life sciences, a well-built Japanese patent portfolio is a real competitive asset — not just a defensive cost.

Why Work With Me
Many patent matters require either life-science expertise or software expertise. AI-driven biotechnology demands both at once — together with a clear understanding of the business behind the invention.
- Dual technical depth. Deep expertise in biotechnology and AI/software-related inventions, so complex subject matter is captured accurately and broadly.
- Business-minded prosecution. As a licensed SME management consultant (Chusho Kigyo Shindanshi), I build portfolios that create competitive advantage, not just paperwork.
- Up to date with examination practice. Closely following fast-moving JPO and international standards for AI-related inventions.
- Direct English communication. You correspond with the attorney handling your case — clearly and without intermediaries.
