Trademarks & Designs

This module covers the trademark and design procedures, copyright and domain names. By the end of this session participants will understand the differences between trademarks, designs, domain names and copyright and the different way of thinking compared to patent law. For, different than in patent law, having a trademark and/or design registration does not necessarily mean that rights have been acquired or will remain valid during the registration period. Consequently, participants will acquire knowledge about the filing requirements and understanding of the registration procedure for the Benelux, European and International procedures. Lastly, participants will have an insight in the different filing routes.
