The development of international supply chains has become a
critical success factor for big companies, and should be seen as important key
for products of developing countries to gain entry into high standard market
such as USA, European Countries, and Japan. However, many Vietnam companies
have experienced problems in shifting their supply chain abroad as well as
managed their intellectual property such as geographical indication,
trademarks.
Protecting Intellectual Property Rights Abroad
for Vietnam Enterprises
On October 24th, 2017, Vietnam
Intellectual Property Association (VIPA) in cooperation with the World
Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and
Industry (VCCI), International Association for the Protection of Intellectual
Property Rights (AIPPI) organized the seminar “Protecting intellectual property
rights abroad for Vietnamese enterprises” to provide Vietnam
companies value information for protecting their Intellectual Property right in
the Fourth Industrial Revolution and global supply chain development.
All the experts have strongly recognized the important role of
intellectual property protection abroad for Vietnamese enterprises and
introduced:
-Introduction to the International World of Intellectual property
-Protecting a valuable asset- How to protect your Brand with
Madrid
-Options to protect an invention: Patent
Cooperation Treaty (PCT) and trade Secrets
-Introduction to the international design System- Hague
-Other WIPO services, Tools and Products
-About International Association for the
Protection of Intellectual Property- AIPPI (Association Internationale
pour la Protection de la Propriété Intellectuelle) Vietnam is a member
of the WIPO and is a signatory to the Paris Convention for the Protection of
Industrial Property. It has acceded to the Patent Cooperation Treaty and the
Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks, and in
2004 joined the Berne Convention. Therefore, the Vietnamese enterprises should
file trademarks, patents or industrial designs by international systems for
saving cost and managing the registration procedures effectively. However, it
is suggested that the international Bureau of WIPO does not decide
whether trademarks, patents or industrial designs are
eligible for protection or not, and the final decisions must depend on
Intellectual Property law of each country i.e. Vietnam. For differences of laws
in every country and difficult techniques when preparing Intellectual
Property application, applicants should find valuable assistant from
Intellectual Property agent.
