Globalization and the rapid proliferation of technology, coupled with the intangible nature of Intellectual Property (IP) and the worldwide inconsistency of standard practices create challenges for those businesses wishing to protect their inventions, brands and business methods in domestic and foreign markets. There is a global upsurge in innovation and increasing demand for IP and patent protection.
India's growing R&D operations which fuel the need for IP expertise and international protection of innovations have become crucial in today’s scenario. But due to lack of in-house professionals to file patents & IPR applications, lack of resources to optimize the commercialization and lack of reach for exploitation of the global markets is proving to be difficult for some of the progressive businesses. In order to meet the growing demands of the patent and related services globally, there is a rapidly growing need in India for qualified patent professionals and agents as well as IP litigation attorneys. |
