Intellectual Property Rights

Significance of Intellectual Property (IP) Rights

Intellectual Property protection is critical to fostering innovation. Without protection of ideas, businesses and individuals would not reap the full benefits of their inventions and would focus less on research and development. Similarly, artists would not be fully compensated for their creations and cultural vitality would suffer as a result.

The first step in protecting your business from intellectual property (IP) theft is to protect your IP – both in your own and and in other countries where you do business and source products. Most IP rights are territorial, meaning, for example, a U.S. patent or trademark only provides protection in the United States. To be able to enforce your Intellectual Property rights in other countries, you need to secure protection of that IP in those countries – often through registration.

ISO Certifications and Audits

International Standards Organization (ISO) is an international body that standardizes how business and organizations involved in commerce and industry manage information and processes. The ISO does not enforce regulations. ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, promotes global standardization for specifications and requirements for materials, products, procedures, formats, information and quality management. Certification under ISO standards is an assurance that the ISO – required management of processes and documentation is in place.

COPYRIGHTS

A copyright is a collection of rights automatically vested to you once you have created an original work. To understand how these rights can be used or licensed, it is helpful to analogize them to a bundle of sticks, where each stick represents a separate right vested to you as the owner. These rights include the right to reproduce the work, to prepare derivative works, to distribute copies, to perform the work publicly, and to display the work publicly.

As the copyright owner, you have the authority to keep each “stick,” to transfer them individually to one or more people, or to transfer them collectively to one or more people. The power of copyright allows you to choose the way your work is made available to the public.

TRADERMARKS, SERVICE MARKS
- A Trademark generally refers to a “brand” or “logo”

Trademarks registration can also be obtained for a business name, distinctive catch phrases, taglines or captions. When properly used and promoted, a Trademark may become the most valuable asset of a business.

It is also essential to obtain trademark registration for the business name / trade name under the Trademarks Act. Registration of a company or business name under the Companies Act does not in itself give protection against others who might commence using identical or similar marks. The use of TM and SM symbols notifies the public that the company is claiming exclusive ownership of the trademark and can generally be used by one who has filed a trademark application.

PATENTS

The primary goal of the patent law is to encourage innovation and commercialization of technological advances. Patent law incentivizes inventors to publicly disclose their inventions in exchange for certain exclusive rights. A patent protects inventions. These inventions can include new and useful processes, machines, manufactures, compositions of matter as well as improvements to these. Certain computer programs may fall within the subject matter protected by both patents and copyrights. In this respect the patent system compliments copyright protection by providing protection for functional aspects of the software, which are not protected by copyright. Unlike the copyright registration process, the patent application process is expensive, complex, difficult, and time consuming and generally should not be attempted without the assistance of an experienced patent attorney or agent.
