Attorney Naoki KurokawaHowever, I will be speaking at the online intellectual property event, "[The 42nd Chizai Katariba] [Live Only!] Lawyers x Kasumigaseki: A Challenge to Move from 'Using' Laws to 'Creating' Them."
What kind of perspective does it offer for practitioners who have previously been on the "user side" of the law as lawyers and patent attorneys, to move into the "creation side" of laws and systems in Kasumigaseki (the Japanese government district)? What kind of discussions take place at the forefront of system reform, and how are the voices of corporate and intellectual property practitioners reflected?
We'll hear about the behind-the-scenes stories of the amendments to the Unfair Competition Prevention Act and the revisions to the trade secret management guidelines, as well as how his perspective as an intellectual property practitioner has changed after his experience in government!
This session will be inspiring not only for those interested in a career as a lawyer or patent attorney, but also for those working in intellectual property or legal departments dealing with trade secrets and unfair competition laws, as well as those interested in government secondments or policy-making work.
