Mandated by the 11th ASEAN–Japan Heads of Intellectual Property Offices Meeting, ERIA conducted a research project and produced a report titled ‘Research 2022–2023 on Patent Examination Practices for Emerging Technologies in ASEAN Member States Phase 2.’

This research builds upon Phase 1 conducted in 2020–2021, which focused on AI and IoT technologies. Building on the findings of Phase 1, Phase 2 expands the study to include cases assessing Novelty, such as combination inventions like drone robots operated by remote controllers, Description Requirement assessments for AI systems, and Eligibility for Patent assessments for AI and IoT data, providing practical insights.

ERIA anticipates that this report will contribute to enhancing and facilitating the development of patent examination guidelines or practical standards for emerging technologies like AI and IoT amongst IP offices and related entities in the ASEAN region.

The research report was prepared by Shobayashi International Patent & Trademark Office in Tokyo, with special thanks to Mr Kazuo Hoshino.
