INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SERVICES IN EUROPE
The European economy is characterized by abundance, in which a multitude of providers wrestle in a limited space. In order to succeed in this hyper-competitive, globalized and dense economic environment, the best strategy is to add more value to a product or service that is differentiated by its branded and innovative nature.
It is the reason why intellectual property is one of the key factors of the European economic growth.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SERVICES IN AFRICA
African countries can present great challenges when it comes to protecting your Intellectual Property assets. Our local presence with a selected network and experience duplicated from European style lean management is key to attain and maintain a high quality of service.
Africa is full of opportunities due to the growth of both its population and digitalization.
OUR EXPERTISE
25 years of expertise and counting.

AFRICA
We are registered representatives in West Africa since 2014. In terms of trademark & patent applications, the majority of the 54 countries on the continent are divided in major regions ruled by two organizations over the individual protections:
