Assumptions that we often hear from our clients are:<br \/>\u201cWe developed the product ourselves, so the idea belongs to us.\u201d<br \/>\u201cA brand name that describes our product in the best possible way, so that it is immediately recognizable in its function, is perfect as a brand name.\u201d<br \/>\u201cAs long as no one else copies our idea or our product, we can save ourselves the time and effort of filing a patent.\u201d<br \/><br \/><strong>Our conclusion:<\/strong> Many companies have many good and unique ideas, but are often unable to assess IP rights adequately due to a lack of knowledge and incorrect assessment. <br \/><br \/>We have listed a few examples here to illustrate how worthy various ideas are of protection:<br \/><br \/>Have you devised a simple Excel tool for internal project planning?<br \/>Really practical for you and your work, but unfortunately not immediately a protectable product from a legal point of view. The situation is different with special packaging formats or folding techniques: Depending on which new aspects characterize your packaging (sustainability through material savings thanks to a special folding technique), a property right may be possible here.<br \/><br \/>You also need to be careful with brand names: a product name such as Schraubfest for a new type of screw or a product that helps you to screw may already be too descriptive and therefore not registrable as a brand name. <br \/>To summarize: The protectability depends not only on your idea, but also on its legal classification.<br \/><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4686e65 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4686e65\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">One intention, so many possibilities.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0fc1ef elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b0fc1ef\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also important to differentiate between the various possibilities of property rights. While patents reliably protect technical inventions, they are usually particularly complex, time-consuming and cost-intensive. Utility models are an alternative, although not in all countries. Utility model protection is often quicker and cheaper to obtain, but compared to patent protection, it is only an unexamined property right. With a design, the appearance of a product can only be protected for you. Registered trademarks are particularly advantageous when it comes to protecting a name, slogan or corresponding claim. Protection is particularly worthwhile here, as the trademark is a valuable and fundamental part of the corporate identity. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It's not easy to find your way around.
