クライアントから招待チケットをいただき、10月10日に東京ビッグサイトで開催された第45回国際福祉機器展H.C.R.2018を見に行きました。今回は、外国の企業の出展も目立ちました(車いす等の移動機器関連等)。ヘルスケア関連の特許出願は、IoT関連技術の発展に伴い、今後も伸びていくと考えられます。クライアントの技術をよく理解し、クライアントのためになる提案をするためにも、今後も、様々な展示会に行きたいと思います。

In this Exhibition, many foreign companies exhibited many varieties of home care products (e.g. mobility equipment such as wheel chairs). In connection with development of IoT related technology, patent applications related to healthcare are expected to grow in the future.
