Patents
Patents are monopoly rights protecting primarily technical inventions, giving the right to exclude others from the technology. They can be extremely commercially valuable. We are specialist in filing, protecting and managing Patents in Tunisia.
A patent is an exclusive right to a product or a process that generally provides a new way of doing something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem. Patent is an exclusive rights granted for an invention. We are specialist in filing, protecting and managing Patents in Tunisia.
To get a patent, technical information about the invention must be disclosed to the public in a patent application. The patent owner may give permission to, or license, other parties to use the invention on mutually agreed terms. The owner may also sell the right to the invention to someone else, who will then become the new owner of the patent. Once a patent expires, the protection ends, and an invention enters the public domain; that is, anyone can commercially exploit the invention without infringing the patent.
The ability to leverage patents rights through production, transfer, or licensing, and to enforce those rights against competitors, is a crucial factor in determining patent value.
