Trilateral Roundtable on Patent Information

The Japan Patent Office (JPO) will host a roundtable discussion session on behalf of the Trilateral Co-operation at the Patent Information Fair and Conference 2008 in Tokyo.

The discussion will focus on the following topics:

• Determine what data and products users currently use
• Identify patent information needs and wants
• Collaborate on potential products that meet those needs
• Discuss problems created by inefficient access to relevant information
• Identify which data sources have the greatest impact, resulting in fewer, better targeted, higher quality patent applications
• Discuss ways to provide efficient access to all relevant patent information, including prosecution and ownership data

The roundtable is taking place in an effort to establish mutually beneficial relationships and to better understand ing our stakeholders’ needs.
