平素は格別のご高配を賜り厚くお礼申し上げます。
弊所は、1991年設立で、今年で丸30年となります。設立以来、私朝比が外国部代表として、また増田が国内部代表として2名でパートナー経営をしてまいりました。朝比は来年で67歳となり、この機会に、2021年12月末で外国部代表を退任し、新たに弁理士江部武史が2022年1月から外国部代表に就任することになりました。朝比が外国部代表として在任中の30年間、朝比・増田特許事務所は、皆様に多大なご指導ご鞭撻を賜り、心より感謝申し上げます。
後任の江部は、17年近い弁理士経験を有しており、内外のクライアントや所員からも厚い信頼を得ております。また、私朝比も引き続き顧問として勤務いたします。そのため、皆様にご提供するサービスに変わりなく、むしろ若い江部のリーダーシップの下で、さらなるサービスの向上もできるものと確信している次第でございます。なお、国内部代表の増田は、現状のままです。
今後とも、朝比・増田特許事務所を何卒よろしくお願い申し上げます。
