Manage protection. Build value from intellectual assets.

Trademarks, patents and know-how become business assets when ownership, protection and use are connected to strategy. Registration is one step: markets, classes, rights and documentation must also be defined.

What it produces

A path connecting business objectives to the assets to protect and exploit, the specialist skills required and the documentation to collect. Trademark licensing also requires defined ownership, conditions and appropriate tax and legal assessment.

Patents, designs and models have their own exploitation instruments. New Patent Box applies to its own set of assets and activities; trademarks and know-how are excluded.

Who does what

The business defines its objectives and assets. MA.VI coordinates the project, partners and documentation. Qualified professionals handle registration, assessments and tax and legal matters. Funding opportunities are checked against the specific project.
