IP Bridge expands patent fund activities beyond Japan to tap Southeast Asia's innovation promise

Back in October last year, Japanese sovereign patent fund (SPF) operator IP Bridge signed a memorandum of understanding with Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC). Under the terms of the deal, IP Bridge and MDEC – a Malaysian government agency tasked with promoting development of the country’s information and communications technology (ICT) industry – will cooperate on IP creation, commercialisation and monetisation. The hook-up will also help Malaysian high-tech businesses “to leverage… Japan’s vast research and development field for creating innovations in technology as well as entering the Japanese market”.
