Takaoka IP is pleased to announce the results of its patent practice for 2025, reflecting steady growth and continued trust from clients in Japan and abroad.
In 2025, Takaoka IP handled a total of 4,407 patent matters, representing 105% of the previous year’s volume. This outcome demonstrates another year of stable expansion following the firm’s strong performance in 2024.
Looking at a longer-term perspective, Takaoka IP’s patent practice has grown significantly over the past five years. Compared with the firm’s patent workload five years ago, the 2025 figure represents a 143% increase, underscoring sustained growth rather than short-term fluctuation. This growth has been achieved on the basis of an already substantial patent practice within Japan’s intellectual property landscape.
For clarity and consistency with previous announcements, this news focuses on patent matters only. However, Takaoka IP also handles trademark and design matters, both of which have experienced a similar growth trajectory during the same period. This balanced development across multiple areas of intellectual property reflects the firm’s comprehensive approach to client needs.
Takaoka IP remains committed to delivering high-quality, practical intellectual property services while continuing to grow in a measured and sustainable manner. The firm extends its sincere appreciation to its clients and partners for their continued confidence and support.
