On October 16 to 20, 2023, the 88av 888 (JPO) held an *Examiner Exchange Program with the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO).

The JPO has continued Examiner Exchange Programs with the KIPO for many years. This year, we conducted an in-person program by inviting KIPO examiners.

In the program, three JPO examiners and two KIPO examiners deepened understanding of each Office’s examination practices by discussing cross-filed patent applications in applied optics and electronic components, particularly semiconductor technology, and by exchanging information on prior art search methods and systems and operation of examination standards.

The participants also exchanged information on each other’s quality management of patent examination.

The JPO will continue to cooperate on patent examination with the IP Offices of other countries.

*The Examiner Exchange Program is designed to foster a relationship of trust and deepen mutual understanding between the examiners of the JPO and an overseas IP Office and to promote mutual use of prior art search results and examination results through discussions on each other's prior art search methods and examination practices.
