Flexible Evolution

Patent rights are important and can be said to be the lifeline of many companies. Therefore, careful and delicate work is required for translation related to patents.

Society and technology are undergoing dramatic changes. Bold innovations are sometimes necessary to respond to this change whether as a company or an individual. 

​While maintaining balance between cautiousness and boldness, we endeavor to continuously and flexibly evolve and grow with our client companies and patent firms.
