CAS Adds Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines as 60th Patent Authority in Its Patent CoverageCAS has enhanced its extensive patent coverage by adding patent and patent family information from the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IP Philippines), increasing the number of patent authorities covered to 60. The CA/CAplus databases are a rich source of unique, difficult-to-locate Asian patent content provided by patent authorities in Hong Kong, Japan, the People's Republic of China, the Republic of Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan. The addition of information from the IP Philippines further enriches CAS' Asian patent coverage. Patents emerging from smaller patent authorities are often the source of unique inventions. This information is also largely inaccessible to many patent searchers because few information providers cover smaller patent authorities. With CAS' broad coverage of 60 worldwide patent authorities--many of them smaller patent offices--you can be sure you will not miss this important, one-of-a-kind information. For additional information about these databases, refer to the STN Database Summary Sheets page.
