Copyright
Copyright support includes registration and advisory work relating to software, source code, written material, artwork, technical documentation, websites and other eligible original works. We also assist with ownership review, assignments, licences and infringement-related questions.
Industrial designs
Industrial design registration protects eligible visual features of an article rather than its technical operation. Services include registrability review, representation and classification of the article, drawings or photographs review, filing, prosecution, renewal and portfolio coordination.
Geographical indications
Geographical-indication matters may involve assessing the connection between goods and their geographic origin, defining the relevant territory and product characteristics, preparing supporting material and coordinating registration and authorised-user requirements.
Semiconductor integrated-circuit layout-designs
PRASA IP supports registration strategy and documentation for qualifying semiconductor integrated-circuit layout-designs. The work may include ownership and originality review, representation requirements, filing documentation and coordination with related patent, copyright, design and trade-secret strategies.
Trade secrets and confidential know-how
Not every commercially valuable development should be disclosed in a patent application. Trade-secret support includes identification of confidential assets, access and disclosure controls, confidentiality provisions, employee and contractor arrangements and coordination with patent-filing decisions.
Choosing the appropriate right
A product or business may involve several rights at the same time—for example, a patent for technical operation, a design registration for appearance, copyright in software or drawings, a trademark for the brand and trade-secret controls for undisclosed know-how. We help structure these rights as a connected portfolio.
