なぜ荏原製作所は「知財ROIC」を導入したのか

LexisNexis PatentSight+ Summit 2026 における「なぜ荏原製作所は『知財ROIC』を導入したのか」(荏原製作所 知的財産部長、高柳秀臣氏)と題した講演の内容詳細がBiz/Zineに掲載されています。
荏原製作所が「知財ROIC」を導入した背景には、リーマンショック後に研究開発投資の削減と大量の特許放棄を経験し、「知財は経営にどう貢献するのか」を明確にする必要に迫られたことがあり、知財活動の成果を「質的効率」と「量的効率」に分け、特許の質やリスク低減、業務改善などを経営の共通言語で可視化する仕組みを構築したということです。
知財ROICは、知財部門の効率化だけを目的とした指標ではなく、事業責任者との定例会で、競合比較、新事業・新市場の探索、財務指標との関係を議論する「経営対話ツール」として活用されており、今後は、知財経営を技術経営(MOT)や人的資本経営と統合し、技術・知財・人財を一体で捉えるデータドリブン経営を目指しています。
知財部門が「権利を管理する組織」から「経営判断を支える組織」へ進化する姿を示す、示唆に富む記事です。

August 8 — Why Did Ebara Corporation Introduce “IP ROIC”?
Biz/Zine has published a detailed article covering a presentation titled “Why Did Ebara Corporation Introduce ‘IP ROIC’?” delivered by Hideomi Takayanagi, General Manager of the Intellectual Property Department at Ebara Corporation, at the LexisNexis PatentSight+ Summit 2026.
One of the key factors behind Ebara’s introduction of “IP ROIC” was its experience following the global financial crisis, when the company reduced R&D investment and abandoned a large number of patents. This created an urgent need to clarify the fundamental question: “How does intellectual property contribute to management and business performance?”
In response, Ebara developed a framework that divides the outcomes of IP activities into “qualitative efficiency” and “quantitative efficiency,” enabling the company to visualize factors such as patent quality, risk reduction, and operational improvements using a common language that can be understood and discussed by management.
IP ROIC is not merely a metric for improving the efficiency of the IP department. It is also used as a “management dialogue tool” in regular meetings with business leaders, where they discuss such issues as competitive benchmarking, the exploration of new businesses and markets, and the relationship between IP activities and financial indicators. Looking ahead, Ebara aims to integrate IP management, Management of Technology (MOT), and human capital management, pursuing data-driven management that treats technology, intellectual property, and human capital as interconnected assets.
The article offers valuable insights into how an IP department can evolve from an “organization that manages IP rights” into an “organization that supports management decision-making.”
