The seminar titled "Survey Research for Litigation, Negotiation, and Regulatory Proceedings: Practical Guide to Effective Evidence and Argumentation in Legal and Intellectual Property Matters" systematically explains how to use survey research effectively to provide supporting evidence in legal and administrative procedures.

Survey research is used as powerful scientific and objective evidence to substantiate claims in litigation, negotiations, and regulatory proceedings. It is applied not only in intellectual property matters such as secondary meaning surveys, unfair competition cases, and damage assessment studies, but also across a wide range of fields including antimonopoly and civil cases. 

This seminar covers:

• Key points in survey design (such as target population selection, question development, and framing questions to anticipate rebuttals)

• Important considerations during survey implementation (including sample extraction, bias mitigation, and ensuring data reliability)

• Analysis of survey results and preparing clear and persuasive reports

• Techniques to effectively support legal arguments before judges and regulatory officials

• Strategies to respond to criticisms from opposing parties

• Introduction of practical case studies (such as trademark disputes, unfair competition cases, personal data breaches, antimonopoly-related matters, etc.)

This seminar is essential for corporate legal and intellectual property practitioners and attorneys who are considering incorporating survey research in practice. The content is designed to be accessible even to those new to survey research, providing a systematic understanding.
