    Interested in optimising your design protection strategy? Then, identify the designs for which registration is objectively not a priority because of potential invalidity issues.

    In this webinar we will pinpoint some of the factors impacting the decision to register a design. Examples include:

    • Was my design previously disclosed? If so, where and when?
    • Is my design dictated by a function?
    • Is my design visible?
    • Does my design contain official symbols?
    • Am I aware of third parties’ rights?

    This webinar is made for you if you are an IP professional responsible for design portfolios or a designer/entrepreneur considering investing in design protection.
