Protection of design: an underrated tool
“Working on a technical field is supposed to give birth to inventions, technical advancements and resolutions of practical problems. But is it always the case? Are there other tools to exploit and protect the intellectual property of something new? This seminar will focus on design, or “design patents”, an usually underrated and unknown instrument to give value to your work and build possible business perspectives in an easy but strong way.
After a brief introduction on the main intellectual property right tools available, the seminar will go through an overview of the main concepts around Design, its strengths and eligibility thereto. A comparison of the various IP tools will explored, focusing on the differences between Designs, Trademarks, Copyrights and Utility Patents, in order to fully understand what kind of protection may better fit to any situation. Importantly, procedural and practical aspects regarding when, what and how to protect Designs will be addressed, with a focus on the various jurisdictions practices and requirements, and tips to optimize the protection. A real-life case study will end this part, bringing to short strategic considerations regarding the value of Designs to close the seminar.”
