Trade mark searches: TMView a useful tool for EU SMEs looking towards India
|
|
Any European SME looking to expand their business to India should be very careful to take all the necessary steps to protect their intangible assets there before entering this new market (or any other market, for that matter). In effect, what this means that it should make sure that its intellectual property is duly protected in India: keep in mind that registered IP rights are territorial in nature, which means that they are only protected in the territory in which they have been registered. Trade marks, patents, design rights which have been registered in Europe have no legal weight in India and cannot be enforced there.
