IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Another cost-effective advantage offered by WIPNET Global is its colossal and unavoidably impressive database and library, stocked with hundreds of the OAPI Official Bulletins (Gazettes) classified from the Year 1966 to date. With such information at our disposal, we can easily inform our clientele on the incidents in the life of their I.P. rights. This stands out as an alternative to formal and paid information requests often carried out at the level of the OAPI Registry, the results of which sometimes take unnecessarily long to be released.
A great number of applicants world-wide have identified and chosen us as their trustworthy partner in Intellectual Property protection and other legal businesses. Why not join them! |
