Intellecual Property Monitoring

The appearance of similar products, services and technologies on the market places business at a disadvantage in relation to their competitors and may result in financial losses.

The benefit of monitoring

Continous monitoring allows the detection of the intellectual property registration of competing products, services and technologies. With the early identification of competing property rights and the taking of appropriate responsive actions can prevent future litigation and financial losses On the other hand, missed or late action relating to the property rights registration of competing products, services or technologies may result in disadvantages in the market.
