Thomson Innovation accelerates intellectual property research and analysis with
the inclusion of the patent-issuing authorities of Vietnam, Malaysia and
Thailand
ALEXANDRIA, Va., USA, March 14, 2013 - Intellectual Property & Science business
of Thomson Reuters, the world's leading source of intelligent information for
businesses and professionals, today announced the addition of English-translated
patent records from Vietnam and Thailand, as well as Malaysian full-text
patents, to Thomson Innovation(®), the world's leading patent intelligence and
collaboration platform.
The addition of these patent documents enables IP professionals to better
understand the state of prior art in Southeast Asia, make more informed filing
decisions, identify potential partners and more. This is all possible through
the editorially enhanced content in Derwent World Patents Index(®) (DWPI(SM))
and its integration with Thomson Innovation to provide a single platform for
easily searching patents
from the newly added authorities alongside Japanese,
Korean and Chinese records (in English) and scientific literature.
"Intellectual property research in Southeast Asia is on the rise due to rapid
economic development in China," said Hiroshi Oyama, intellectual property
department, Denki Kagaku Kogyo KK, a leading Japanese chemical manufacturer. "We
rely on Thomson Innovation for trusted and accurate patent information from
around the world. The inclusion of these patent-issuing authorities will enable
us to expand the value of our IP portfolio in Southeast Asia."
"With numerous languages, and hard-to-obtain patent records, Southeast Asia
poses a serious challenge for IP professionals researching the region for IP
market opportunities," said Cynthia Murphy, senior vice president for the IP
Solutions business of Thomson Reuters. "We are committed to supporting clients
who conduct business in these emerging markets and are proud to be the only
solution provider to offer accurate, value-added, full-text patent translations
in English from a multilingual team of certified translation professionals."
Thomson Innovation is the only patent research platform that enables users to
search Asian patent data (in English) alongside global patents, scientific
literature, and business and news information. Coupled with Derwent World
Patents Index, the industry's most trusted collection of editorially enhanced
patent records from 50 global issuing authorities, it includes English-language
abstracts and titles, making it easier for researchers to quickly find the
information they need to make informed decisions.
