NEC has always prioritized advanced technologies as a crucial part of its business foundation. For example, in the fields of face, iris, and fingerprint recognition, we have attained top rankings in the benchmark tests by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Furthermore, our intellectual property portfolio, including our leading AI technologies, has garnered high praises from external independent research organizations.

NEC’s Intellectual Property Management Division is committed to clearly conveying the importance and practical benefits of intellectual property in a more accessible way and understandable and our goal is to foster a deeper understanding of the strengths and application potentials of NEC’s intellectual property, to foster increased collaborative creation with our stakeholders, and spur a wide range of innovations.
