Greetings

The paradigm shift caused by the 4th Industrial Revolution centered on 5G (5th-generation mobile communication systems), IoT (Internet of Things), and AI (artificial intelligence) is advancing, and the world is changing dramatically, and innovative products and services are about to be created one after another. Many innovations created in the paradigm shift are based on semiconductor and software technologies. After gaining experience as a semiconductor engineer, I have been engaged in intellectual property operations in the intellectual property sector of a company in the fields of semiconductors, electronics, and software. Taking advantage of the knowledge I have gained in my career, I intend to work as a patent attorney to contribute to successes of those who are challenging new businesses in the paradigm shift of the 4th Industrial Revolution.
