On new projects, IP team proactively monitors potential risks
related to IP and establishes responsive portfolio strategies

for top-notch search engines and various programs to
cultivate the experts. Moreover, we are expanding the
network with external experts we have built on each area of
the businesses.

services trusted by the customers and ultimately achieving
customer satisfaction and therefore is defined as another type
of R&D performed outside the laboratory.
