Why Intellectual Property?

The firm has paced itself with global trends by placing intellectual property law at the core of its existence because of the Information technology revolution, the increasing pace and impact of innovation and rapid globalization.

What is intellectual property?

The World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) defines intellectual property as ‘…creations of the mind: inventions, literary and artistic works, and symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce.’

Intellectual property law is thus concerned with the legal framework around the coming into being of intellectual property rights, their registration, maintenance, enforcement, transfer and extinction.

All this work requires legal minds and we at BMatanga IP Attorneys have placed intellectual property at the core of our practice. We aim to help you navigate through this often complex area of law with our highly qualified and experienced staff.
