Development of new technologies and ongoing international expansion brings stronger need for global IP Rights management

Dongjin Semichem Co., Ltd, one of the world?s leading producers of electronic materials and fine chemicals, has appointed CPA Global to manage renewals of the company?s expanding international patent portfolio.

Commenting on the agreement, the head of Dongjin Semichem?s IP Department, Mr Ji-Hum Baik, said: ?Innovation has been and continues to be at the centre of Dongjin Semichem?s growth. From the very beginning, we?ve always recognised the value of protecting that innovation by making sure we have the appropriate patents in place. As we continue to develop new technologies and expand our operations around the world, it is increasingly important that we are able to secure, maintain and effectively manage our IP Rights. As a world leader in our field, it?s natural that we should choose the world?s leading IP management services provider to support us in this effort.?

Mr Baik added that Dongjin Semichem would also be looking to utilise CPA Global?s patent analysis and landscaping services to gain a broader understanding of IP-related developments, particularly competitor activity, in their specific industry sectors and geographic markets.
