Ip registration
A trademark is a sign that you can use to distinguish your business’ goods or services from those of other traders.
Types of trademark: Word mark, figurative mark, composite mark, collective mark, certification mark, colour, packaging, sound, 3D shape and others.
A trademark will be protected for 10 years upon the date of registration. After 10 years, a renewal may be made. The use of the ® symbol is only allowed after the status of your trade mark has been updated as “Registered”.
The ® symbol indicates that the mark is protected under trade mark laws.
Trademark registration will allow your esteemed agency/ brand to enjoy the following:
- Exclusive ownership legally and officially over the brand that you have spent substantial resources to build.
- Elevate the brand value/ exposure through higher public recognition with ™ or ®.
- Increase your company’s intangible assets value through a trademark registration certificate.
- Stop competitors from taking unfair advantage over your brand.
- Increase company revenue/ income through licensing/ franchising business models by leasing out your trademark.
- Save tens of thousands of legal costs / fees if infringement happens.
- As a defensive tool as a MNC or foreign company may come in and want to use the same brand.
- Brands with Trademark registration usually exude more confidence and prestige stance to consumers.
FOR INFORMATION
Copyright (or author’s right) is a legal term used to describe the rights that creators have over their literary and artistic works.
Works covered by copyright range from books, music, paintings, sculpture, and films, to computer programs, databases, advertisements, maps, and technical drawings.
In countries which are members of the Berne Convention, the time limit of copyright should be equal to or longer than 50 years after the creator’s death. Longer periods of protection may however be provided at the national level.
The copyright or © symbol is merely a notice by the owner that copyright exists. The presence of the symbol does not give the copyright owner any additional rights; the absence of the symbol does not mean that the copyright owner has waived his rights.
In practice, the symbol is usually followed by the year when a copy of the work was first made available and the name of the copyright owner.
FOR INFORMATION
A patent is an exclusive right granted for an invention, which is a product or a process that provides, in general, a new way of doing something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem. To get a patent, technical information about the invention must be disclosed to the public in a patent application.
Benefit:
In principle, the patent owner has the exclusive right to prevent or stop others from commercially exploiting the patented invention. In other words, patent protection means that the invention cannot be commercially made, used, distributed, imported or sold by others without the patent owner’s consent.
The protection for patent is granted for a limited period, generally
20 years from the filing date of the application.
FOR INFORMATION
In a legal sense, an industrial design constitutes the ornamental aspect of an article.
An industrial design may consist of three-dimensional features, such as the shape of an article, or two-dimensional features, such as patterns, lines or colors.
Benefit:
In principle, the owner of a registered industrial design or of a design patent has the right to prevent third parties from making, selling or importing articles bearing or embodying a design which is a copy, or substantially a copy, of the protected design, when such acts are undertaken for commercial purposes. Industrial design rights are granted for a limited period. The duration of the protection of industrial designs varies from country to country, but it amounts to at least 10 years. In many countries, the total duration of protection is divided into successive renewable periods.
