Experience the Excitement of Working at Top Team International Patent & Trademark Office

Top Team International Patent & Trademark Office is a renowned specialty IP firm in Taiwan, offering exceptional quality IP services to clients worldwide. Established in 1985 by Henry C.W. Hong, a former Patent Engineer, the firm has grown to become one of the largest and most reputable IP firms in the country.

Throughout its history, Top Team has focused on providing clients with unsurpassed quality IP services, both domestically and internationally. The firm has invested in and fine-tuned its internal and external systems, solidifying its reputation as a premiere specialty IP firm. With a team of approximately 145 professionals, Top Team is dedicated to serving the IP needs of government and private institutes, universities, and corporate and individual entities.

One of the key aspects that sets Top Team apart is its commitment to educating clients. The firm places a strong emphasis on helping domestic clients understand international IP systems, such as the U.S., European, and Japanese IP systems. Senior personnel at the firm attend seminars and training programs at foreign associate law firms, gathering the most current IP information and knowledge to pass on to clients. Additionally, the firm invites foreign patent attorneys specializing in various IP areas to provide training on pertinent issues. This approach not only strengthens the firm's relationships with clients and foreign associate law firms but also bridges the knowledge gap between different worldwide IP systems.

Top Team also strives to help international clients navigate the differences between the Taiwan IP system and the IP systems of their respective jurisdictions. Through various means such as email alerts, video conferencing, personal visits, and presentations, the firm assists clients in gaining an in-depth understanding of relevant issues in the Taiwan and worldwide IP systems.

The firm's success is also attributed to its innovative employee retention model. Recognizing that attracting and retaining legal, tech, and administrative specialists is crucial, Top Team has developed a unique approach. Instead of immediately assigning fresh graduates to client work, the firm invests in and grooms its new tech specialists for the long-term. One-to-one training is provided until the specialist is deemed ready to take on client assignments. The firm also established a detailed quantitative compensation system, minimizing subjectivity and ensuring a consistently high quality of IP services.

Today, Top Team prosecutes over 6,000 IP applications per year, with cross-border work accounting for approximately 60% of the total. The firm's location in the Nankang Software Science Park, just a short drive from the Taiwan IP Office in Taipei City, provides easy access to clients and enhances efficiency. With its team of dedicated professionals, Top Team offers a wide range of IP services, including prosecution, litigation support, arbitration, licensing, and counseling related to patents, trademarks, utility models, designs, and technology transfers.
