AboutAbout the lab
New value from intellectual property.
The Sugano Lab studies the relationship between cutting-edge research and intellectual property.
Intellectual property such as patents is a key to turning technologies and ideas into forms that society can use (social implementation).
The lab brings an intellectual property perspective into research settings and considers how intellectual property should be protected so that cutting-edge technologies can be implemented in society.
The lab sees intellectual property as something that connects people and creates new knowledge, and it also works on building industry-academia collaboration and co-creation spaces based on intellectual property.
