Purpose of Patents
A patent grants an inventor the exclusive right to prevent others from producing, using, selling, exporting, or importing their invention without consent. This exclusive right covers inventions related to products, processes, or manufacturing methods, ensuring protection from unauthorized exploitation. Patents are essential in safeguarding your innovations and efforts from unethical individuals who might seek to profit from them.
Why You Need Patents in Japan
The world has become a global marketplace. Intellectual property laws are geographically limited, and patents are obtained on a country-by-country basis. Thus, even if you secure protection in your own country, it will not necessarily prevent others from manufacturing or selling your products in Japan. This is why obtaining exclusive rights in Japan is crucial to protecting your ideas and business interests.
