Intellectual Property (IP) includes designs, trademarks, copyright and patents which are collectively referred to as Intellectual Property. These come about as a result of the creativity of authors, inventors and proprietors. Rights relating hereto, which the State grants to proprietors, inventors or authors, are, by their very nature, monopolies which are allowed to be exploited. The rights are often the most prominent and valuable assets on the balance sheets of many of the world’s largest and best known companies.
At Edward Nathan Sonnenbergs (ENS), we ensure that your valuable intangible assets are optimally protected by the IP laws of our country, or of any other country in which your products are sold or in which your services are rendered. Through optimal merchandising, licensing and/or commercialisation, we will assist you to maximise your returns on the investment of time and resources in these rights. Not only will we comprehensively protect your intellectual property rights, we will also enforce your rights to prevent any unauthorised use or exploitation by third parties. We understand our clients’ businesses and commercial needs and make every effort to ensure that our clients enjoy a competitive advantage through pro-active and effective strategic management of their IP portfolios.
