We are thrilled to announce that our Partner and Head of Intellectual Property, Leakena CHHIM, has been approved for the JPO/IPR Training Program 2023.

This international initiative, organized by the Japan Patent Office (JPO) and the Japan Institute for Promoting Invention and Innovation (JIPII), cultivates exceptional IPR talent from developing nations, with a focus on the Asia-Pacific region.

The program offers an array of courses covering topics like patent examination, patent management, IP enforcement, and IP education. These courses, conducted both online and in-person, provide participants with a holistic understanding of IPR practices through lectures, discussions, exercises, and hands-on experiences.

One of the program’s features is the networking and exchange opportunities it provides. Participants engage with instructors, experts, and fellow professionals from Japan and around the world, promoting mutual understanding and cooperation among stakeholders in the realm of IPR.

Leakena CHHIM’s participation in this program is a testament to her commitment to elevating her proficiency in patent law and global IP practices. We eagerly anticipate the invaluable insights she will bring back to our firm, further enhancing our ability to serve you with excellence and innovation.

As Leakena embarks on this transformative journey, we invite you to follow her progress and celebrate her accomplishments. Stay tuned for updates as she deepens her expertise and contributes to the global discourse on intellectual property rights.
