The Japan Intellectual Property Information Expo was held at TOKYO BIG SIGHT from September 16 to 18, 2026, bringing together IP professionals and industry representatives from Japan and abroad. BEYOND Attorneys at Law participated in the exhibition, engaging with industry peers and exploring opportunities for closer cooperation in the field of intellectual property.

The BEYOND team, with Japanese-language capabilities and experience in both Chinese and Japanese IP practice, met with representatives of domestic and international businesses to discuss their IP needs and cross-border business activities. The conversations covered overseas IP protection, patent portfolio management and strategies for addressing IP-related risks.

The exhibition also provided an opportunity to exchange views on current developments in the IP sector, including AI-related patent protection, practical challenges in cross-border IP matters, and developments in IP laws and policies in China and Japan. The team introduced BEYOND’s services in patents, trademarks, copyrights, IP disputes and litigation, domain name protection, consulting and training, and discussed potential areas of cooperation with visitors.

BEYOND’s participation reflects its continued commitment to the Japanese market and to strengthening professional relationships across East Asia. The firm looks forward to further exchanges with Japanese and international colleagues and to developing new opportunities for cross-border cooperation in intellectual property.
