Our Story

Our firm began as the vision of one man, Mr Henry Goh, who believed in the potential of intellectual property in Malaysia back in 1977. At the time, intellectual property in Malaysia was still in its infancy and the concept of intellectual property rights very much a novelty. Nonetheless, Mr Henry Goh forged ahead and armed with nothing more than a few forms and typewriter, established the firm that is known today as Henry Goh.

Qualified
IP Experts

Over 48 Years Experience

Guaranteed Performance

Our firm experienced strong growth and success throughout the 1980s and within ten years of its founding, went from being a one-man start-up to a 30-member firm. Over the next ten years, Henry Goh would go on to become one of the largest intellectual property agencies in Malaysia. By the end of the 1990s, our firm had opened a sister office in Singapore and was representing clients in Brunei Darussalam.

Despite our firm’s impressive growth, we have held true to our roots as a family business with a strong emphasis on professional ethics, high quality work, personalized service and responsible corporate citizenship.

We offer a complete range of Intellectual Property services encompassing patent, trademark, industrial design, copyright, licensing and/or technology transfer matters as well as non-poisonous pharmaceutical drug registration. Our legal, technical and business experience coupled with in-depth knowledge of relevant local, regional and international laws governing intellectual property practice provide us with a unique platform for advising clients from the inception stage through to the commercialization stage of their technology.

Vision

With an established heritage of more than four decades, Henry Goh aspires to be the number one intellectual property firm in Malaysia and amongst the top ten in Asia. We are inspired by the potential value of the intellectual property assets we are entrusted to protect or defend.

Mission

Henry Goh aims to maintain and build upon our position as a market leader in the IP industry by:

  • Maintaining professionalism, integrity and dedication at all times
  • Delivering quality, timely and value-added services
  • Promoting IP education, awareness and respect for IP laws
  • Supporting the welfare and professional development of our staff
  • Being a responsible corporate citizen

“Our success is a testament to the hard work, sacrifice and perseverance of this firm’s greatest assets: its people. Without their untiring efforts, we would not be the firm we are today.”
