Since passing the Korean Patent Attorney Examination in 2005, Patent Attorney Ki Hyuk YANG has built expertise across the full range of patent prosecution work. This includes filing consultations for Korean companies, government-funded research institutes and universities, domestic filing and registration, outgoing foreign filings, and IP work in Korea for foreign companies.

He also has extensive experience in IP strategy and guidance in bioinformatics, medical devices, information and communications, electrical and electronic circuits, and AI. He has a track record of successful cases in building patent strategies for early-stage startups, for investment rounds, for IPOs, and for technology transfers.

Accordingly, going beyond piecemeal patent filing strategies, he advises on IP strategies that follow a company's full commercialization cycle, increasing its value and offering a range of solutions to its IP-related challenges.
