Session 1. IP Intelligence
When exploring new technologies or new business opportunities, it has been common practice to use IP intelligence to develop R&D pipelines and shape corporate IP strategies. Analyzing global IP trends and comparing the competitive landscape by industry and country has proven to help derive competitive advantage strategies that are critical to business success. Leading domestic and international IP service platforms have long provided excellent tools that integrate techniques such as machine learning and data mining to enable easier, faster, and more accurate analysis. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has further improved the speed, accuracy, affordability, and accessibility of such analysis. The considerable amount of data accumulated since the inception of the patent system, coupled with the emergence of large language models (LLMs) and generative AI technologies, is giving rise to an ever-expanding ecosystem of IP-based AI. As a result, users involved in generating, using, examining, and institutionalizing IP are competing fiercely to gain strategic advantage and uncover business opportunities in shorter timeframes. It is becoming increasingly important to have clear judgment and sharp execution skills to decide how to build barriers to entry through the most effective use of various tools.
This session will explore the benefits of AI-based service platforms built so far; it will also provide an opportunity to hear the opinions and perspectives of industry experts representing various IP on the trajectory of IP ecosystem expansion and response strategies from the perspective of users who utilize them. It will help participants gain insight and knowledge on the appropriate tools and how best to use them.
