Intellectual Property / Protect your creations

Refers to the rights conferred to intangible assets, that is to say human creations, be they literature and artistic creations of all kinds (copyright), technical solutions to problems (patent), ornamental aspects of products (industrial design) or distinctive signs capable of individualising a product from one company to the others (trademark).

Trademarks / Any sign capable of being represented may be protected as a trademark.

Probably the most valuable type of IP right you may have as they act as ambassadors for your company, associating the company’s goodwill and reputation with the products and services provided, by entailing quality and enabling customers to repeat and recommend their pleasant experiences.

Domain Name / Your identity on the Internet.

Whereas two identical trademarks owned by different owners can coexist in different territories, domain names are only allowed to one registrant in a first-come, first- served basis. Thus, it wouldn’t be odd to find out another person has registered a domain name that is the same or a similar name to a registered trademark.

Patents / Your rights over your inventions.

Patents are the rights given by a government for the disclosure of an invention that is capable of being industrially applied.

Industrial Designs / The ornamental aspects of a product.

Their importance resides in the fact that the external appearance of a product is one of the features consumers tend to focus on.

Copyrights / Confer authors of original works exclusive rights.

Are the exclusive rights granted to the authors of an original work to use and distribution, usually for a limited time, with the intention of enabling the creator of intellectual wealth.
