Case Study: Leading Global Research and Development Pharmaceutical Company achieves streamlined, secure patent filing and data transfer with RWS

RWS delivers a successful patent filing and secure data transfer system for a global pharmaceutical organization

A major Japanese‑owned global pharmaceutical company with around 10,000 employees engaged RWS to design a secure, efficient patent filing and information‑transfer solution. The client—listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and a long‑time RWS customer—needed a system that met strict data‑privacy requirements while supporting global patent submissions and translations.

RWS implemented an integrated secure file‑transfer and foreign patent filing solution that fit into the client’s existing workflows, provided user training, and handled translations, application documents and invoices to exact specifications. The result was streamlined foreign filing, cost savings and stronger data protection; the client also expanded the relationship to include PCT and EP validation orders for a U.S. subsidiary to promote consistent global best practices.
