Trademark Registration
What is Trademark Registration?
Trademark registration is an important step in protecting your business’s intellectual property. As the global economy continues to expand, more businesses and brands are looking to extend their presence overseas. In order to protect their intellectual property in foreign countries, it is important for entrepreneurs to understand the process of registering a trademark abroad. According to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), on average, approximately four million trademark applications are filed every year worldwide.
A trademark can be a word, phrase, symbol or design that identifies and distinguishes the source of goods or services from those of others. It can be a logo, slogan, product name or even a sound.
The Madrid Protocol
International trade mark protection is an important tool for businesses to protect their brand and intellectual property. The Madrid Protocol, which is administered by the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), provides a way for businesses to register their trade marks in multiple countries at once. This simplifies the process of registering a trade mark in multiple countries, as it allows businesses to file one application instead of having to submit individual applications in each country.
The Madrid Protocol covers many countries around the world, and businesses can check the WIPO website for a full list of member countries that an international application can cover.
