my name is Lionel time I'm a partner in the technology media and telecommunications Department of Raja and tan Singapore intellectual property refers to the creation of a person's intellect this includes images such as photographs inventions literary and artistic works games logos and symbols intellectual property rights are the exclusive rights over the intellectual property that is granted to the owners or creators of such intellectual property for a specified duration such rights include amongst other things the exclusive right to use or reproduce the eight electro-pop first a key part of any business is branding and reputation often this involves the development of intellectual property such as logos which is used to distinguish a business from its competitors are given enough time use and public exposure businesses may be able to establish a level of goodwill and recognition in the intellect firstly protection if businesses do not take steps to protect the intellectual property believe themselves vulnerable to unrelated parties particularly their competitors making use of their intellectual property and taking unfair advantage goodwill and recognition that exists in the intellectual property that they have created for instance brands logos product names etc should be registered as trademarks to allow our business to enjoy a monopoly over its use and to prevent others from using them without the businesses and set separately businesses may have invested significant resources time and effort in creating intellectual property in the hope of profiting from their creations intellect property rights are important to ensure that such intellectual property are not used served and use unfairly by other parties who have not invested in the development of the creations secondly monetization by owning the rights to intellectual property businesses will be able to monetize and profit from their creations for instance businesses can license it to other parties and charge royalties let's use or even sell the internet rope appearance trademarks are signs such as logos words pictures that businesses can use to indicate that a particular product or service belongs neatly to them and to distinguish a product services from other businesses generally trademarks must be registered in Singapore to be protected however certain exceptions exists for limited classes trademarks known as well-known trademarks all when action for passing off exists in action for passing off the owner of the trademark will be required to prove three things firstly is goodwill or reputation secondly a misrepresentation by the evening job and thirdly damage to his goodwill as a result the registration of trademarks in Singapore is done through the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore or eyeballs once a trademark is registered he will be protected for a period of 10 years the protection of trademarks may be extended or renewed so long as a requisite fees are paid as a protection of trademark is territorial this is us who wish to protect their trademarks overseas must register their trademarks in the corresponding countries as well this may be done either through I paws via the Madrid Protocol for countries who are signatories this this can also be done by filing application directly with intellectual property office of the respective countries copyright protects an author or creators expression of my years in a tangible form certain examples include photographs written articles stories using songs which include both musical cue and the lyrics which are separate copyright works under the Copyright Act creators of copyright work all the exclusive right to reproduce publish and perform or communicate the work in public consequently other parties are not allowed to make use of copyright protected work without consent creator however the world was made with a cause of employment then the world belongs to the employer unless otherwise agreed the copyright overwork subsists in the Creator automatically and there's no need or registration for copyright protection a copyright work created by Singapore citizen or resident is protected in many countries overseas by virtue of international agreements such works protected in countries that are party to the international agreements as though the work was made there patterns are rights that grants the owner of intervention and monopolies always use for a specific duration consequently this prevents others from making using or selling invention without the owner's permission a patentable invention can be a product or a process that gives a new technical solution to a problem it can also be a new method of doing things the composition of a new product or a technical improvement on how certain objects work patterns must be registered in Singapore to be protected and such protection will only be for 20 years risks that designs are similar to patents to protect the external appearance of a product this includes designs for industrial use such as shapes configurations patents or ornaments research designs must be registered in Singapore to be protected and such protection will only be for 50 years it should be noted that Singapore follows a first-to-file system of patents and register designs in other words the first person to file an application will in general have priority for others you
