Promotion Policy for Patent Distribution

as of June 2000

º Patented technologies are a gold mine.
  Patent rights are fruits of R&D in which considerable amounts of human resources and funds have been invested.

º Many patented technologies are licensable.
  Patents are not only for monopolization. Licensable patents are properties that are available for your use. We should utilize them effectively in order to revitalize the industrial economy.

º Are you looking for a new business? Do you have a technological problem that needs to be solved?
  You can obtain valuable technologies developed by someone else by buying or obtaining licenses for already-developed patented technologies, without having to consume significant amounts of time and money.

º Do you have useful patents? Do you have valuable property that is not being used?
  You can increase the value of your property by licensing your patents to others and collecting the invested costs.

How Licensable Patents Become Utilized The JPO has been providing patent distribution promotional policies since FY1997.
