From the context to the project of the enterprise.

The name of a product must consist of descriptions, indications of origin and information to the consumer. A trademark strategy does not replace the verification of labelling rules: the two paths must be coordinated, especially when the product enters new markets.

The territory of activity helps to describe the chain and the partners; the choice of the protection markets depends on where the trademark and other assets are used. For the Turin activities, the comparison starts from products, customers, commercial channels and expansion projects, without assuming that the registration must be limited to the place of the headquarters.

Assets to focus.

Brands and packaging

Brands, line names, labels and packaging shapes require a reading of the distinctive signs and the overall appearance of the product.

Recipes and processes

Formulations, production methods and parameters may require a technical analysis or an organization of confidentiality, according to the characteristics of the case.

Licenses and distribution

Co-branding, franchising, third-party production and trade agreements must clarify trademark uses and access to sensitive information.

Prepare the first confrontation.

  • Brands, labels and images of the packages
  • Non-public formula and process description
  • Agreements with manufacturers and distributors
  • Markets and launch calendar

Indicates whether the activity operates in the capital, in other municipalities of the territory or in several regions. It is useful to distinguish headquarters, production, distribution and target markets. The confidential information can be shared after agreeing to the methods of comparison.

The passage to be checked

Sharing a formulation with a manufacturer or new packaging with a distributor requires attention to the scope of use. An effective name on the Italian market can also require different verifications for international expansion.
