The name Ocean Tomo reflects both the global nature of our practice and an Asian philosophy driven to create an integrated, friendly group of related businesses. Our view is that intellectual capital — and the Intellectual Property which protects it – is now the most important asset class with related business activity becoming increasingly global in the coming decade. “Ocean” reflects the legal acronym for the adverse possession of property (Open, Continuous, Exclusive, Adverse and Notorious), a concept relevant to many forms of intellectual property. “Tomo”, an Asian word for “intellectual”, reflects our vision of a global market.
