Trademark Watch – Monitoring Marks Around the World
Overview on Trademark Watch
A company's branding is a crucial asset. As brands grow, so does the risk of imitation due to their popularity and social media influence. Successful business goes beyond just registering and marketing a brand. Protection against entities that could damage its reputation is vital. Monitoring new trademark applications that could be confusingly similar is key to strengthening a brand. The first step towards protecting your business’s IP rights is to register your business name as trademarks. Aligned with Accolade's mission to meet clients' IP needs, we offer Trademark Watch services.
Our tool covers watch results in 185 jurisdictions worldwide.
