Different ways of intellectual property protection are different, and the application conditions of intellectual property protection are also based on specific laws and regulations. Take trademark registration as an example to introduce the application conditions for trademark registration:
With regard to trademark applicants, Article 4 of the Trademark Law stipulates that enterprises, institutions and individual industrialists and businessmen who need to obtain the exclusive right to use a trademark for the goods they produce, manufacture, process, select and distribute shall apply to the Trademark Office for trademark registration, that is, the scope of trademark registration applicants:
Must be enterprises, institutions, social organizations, individual industrial and commercial households, individual partnerships and foreigners or foreign enterprises that meet the provisions of the Trademark Law. Two or more natural persons, legal persons or other organizations may apply to the Trademark Office for registration of the same trademark and jointly enjoy and exercise the exclusive right to use the trademark.
With regard to trademarks, the Trademark Law stipulates that a trademark applied for registration shall have distinctive features and be easy to identify, and shall not conflict with the legal rights previously obtained by others.
The protection of intellectual property rights is the driving force for the long-term development of enterprises from their own point of view. Entrepreneurs need to pay attention to the protection of intellectual property rights at the beginning of their business, from the most basic personal registration to all-round protection.
